Robberies & Heists

Robberies and Heists are two of the main methods of earning cash in Jailbreak as a Criminal or Police.

Overview

Each heist varies in both levels of difficulty and amounts of cash. Some heists can also be "robbed" by Police under the name of "robbery protecting", such as the Passenger Train, Bank Truck and the Cargo Ship. The first heist added was the Rising City Bank. As of December 2023, the newest robbery added is the Oil Rig. The 3 main types of heists are stationary, moving, and small robberies.

Robbery Groups

As of the Fall 2023 Update, robberies now open in four groups at different times. The groups change every 8 minutes or if all of the locations in the current group have been robbed, with there also being an additional 20 second delay between groups. If the timer expires while a robbery is in progress, there will be a 4 minute timer for the robbery to end. Robberies with no assigned group open independently of the rotation. This change was implemented to help keep players together.

Group A: Rising City Bank, Jewelry Store and the Museum.

Group B: Power Plant, Cargo Plane and the Passenger Train.

Group C: Crater City Bank, Crown Jewel and the Oil Rig.

Group D: Cargo Train, Cargo Ship and the Tomb.

No group: Gas Station, Donut Shop, Bank Truck and the Mansion.

Trivia

• There aren't any robbery chat messages for the Donut Shop and Gas Station.
  • The robbery icon also does not flash when the location is being robbed.
  • Before the March 2021 Update, if a player had the BOSS gamepass, they wouldn't get a message notifying them of a small store opening.
• If the player didn't receive money from the Donut Shop or Gas Station, it means someone else has robbed it recently. It will also say "[Location] I don't have any money! Don't come back later...".
• When the Gas Station and Donut Shop came out, asimo3089 and badcc were not at the cash register. In a later update, both were added. In the August 2023 Update, the NPC model was changed to a model of them sleeping on a chair at the register.
• Currently, the newest added place for a heist is the Oil Rig.
• The Mansion is currently the heist with the most cash awarded to players who complete it. This is followed by the Cargo Ship (2 crates) and Bank Truck.
• Criminals who own the BOSS Gamepass get notified when a location ACTUALLY opens up. Players without the gamepass will know about it 1 minute later due to the updated robbery icon system and server chat message.
• If multiple people rob robberies after the Jewelry Store Update, it will say they successfully robbed it in separate messages, unlike the Bank; the Bank will display a single message for all of the people that robbed it.
• All robbery locations have nearby car spawns, designed as a last-resort getaway, for example the Museum carpark has the Boxer and Badger located there, and the Rising City Bank has the La Matador or Roadster located a few steps away, with the Little Bird located at the top.
  • The only location that doesn't have any last resort vehicles is the Donut Shop.
    • However, there is a Challenger spawn nearby, you also are able to obtain a vehicle you own by going to the Mountainside Town Garage 2 or the 1M Dealership.
• The Donut Shop has eyes on the giant Donut that can be seen on the top of the building.
• When Criminals are carrying a Museum duffel bag, their speed will slightly decrease until they turn in the money to the collector.
• After the 3 years live update, asimo3089 and badcc were not at the cash register at Gas Station and Donut Shop, and were located at the missile silo. They then returned in the Nukes update.
• asimo3089 and badcc were actually below the ground in both the robberies. This was discovered by a former Jailbreak YouTuber, KreekCraft.
• asimo3089 and badcc were removed from their respective spots in May 2021 in preparation for the new robbery when they were moved to the desert near the Military Base examining what the Jailbreak Collector was digging up. They were added back to their spots in the Tomb Update.
• The Cargo Ship can be robbed twice by criminals.
  • The Bank Truck can also technically be robbed multiple times by the same criminal.
• As of the Balance Update, vehicles are no longer allowed to enter robberies.
  • This includes no vehicle spawning near robberies, ejection if a player enters a robbery with a vehicle, and disable police officers entering robberies they are not supposed to, such as the Museum.
• At the current status, a new robbery occur every six months, usually one in June while the other in December.
  • In the 2021 Winter Update, a robbery will not be added due to the numerous amounts of them. This was confirmed in a tweet by asimo3089.
• The trains cannot be collided even if a player spawns one via the Control Tower, the train in existence will disappear.
• There is a glitch where the last person to rob the Banks is not included in the chat message. This can also cause there to be no message if there is only one robber.
• Before the Robbery Groups were introduced, players on the police team could summon the Cargo Plane with the walkie-talkie at the Bounty Bay Airport.
