Polygon.com • • technology
Key Points:
- ROB RUN, a new free-to-play brutal crime sandbox game by Kefir Games, launched in Early Access on Steam on Nov. 4, offering a GTA-like experience where players start as low-level criminals and engage in co-op extraction shooter and open-world RPG gameplay.
- The game quickly gained popularity, peaking at around 140,440 concurrent players and maintaining a steady player base of about 100,000, with real-time interactions exclusively involving other real players.
- Despite its appeal and engaging concept, ROB RUN has received mixed reviews on Steam, with many players reporting severe lag and connection issues, while others praise its fun multiplayer experience.
- ROB RUN is unlikely to divert significant attention from the highly anticipated GTA 6 release on Nov. 19 but may serve as an appealing free alternative for gamers waiting for Rockstar's latest title.
