A new free-to-play co-op crime game on Steam called Rob Run has been dubbed a lite version of GTA 6 Online by some players, but it has gotten off to a rough start. Released on Steam in November 2026, Rob Run features open-world maps with 5,000 players in shared worlds, where they can role-play as cops, robbers, or civilians.
While Rob Run's launch hasn't been exactly smooth, it peaked at more than 80,000 concurrent players on November 7, helping it climb to the top of Steam charts (via SteamDB). For those unfamiliar, developer Kefir describes Rob Run as "a brutal crime sandbox featuring thousands of players." That said, the game seems to combine multiple genres. When playing as robbers, for example, Rob Run feels like a third-person extraction shooter game, tasking players with infiltrating stores or banks and escaping with valuables. From the cops' perspective, the game plays more like a survival shooter, while civilians can enjoy a sandbox life sim experience.
