RUNAWAYS Roblox RUNAWAYS September 8 2026 Notes
UPDATE 3 documented: 4 new locations, career menu, vending machines, new items, car skins, and 50+ bug fixes.
This is an 8 September 2026 check-in for RUNAWAYS [beta] by supercat games. UPDATE 3 dropped on 5 September 2026 via the official Discord announcements channel (developer emile). This page documents every confirmed addition from that patch. The previous wiki pass on 7 September only confirmed UPDATE 2 vehicle stats — this page fills the UPDATE 3 gap.
What UPDATE 3 added
The developer posted the full UPDATE 3 log on the official Discord announcements channel on 5 September 2026. These are the confirmed additions:
Four New Locations
UPDATE 3 added four new interactive locations to the map. Each offers distinct loot, items, or mission triggers:
| Location | Type | Key offerings |
|---|---|---|
| Butcher Shop | Commercial / NPC | Steaks, ribs, and meat items; likely tied to food/consumables system |
| Sushi Shop | Commercial / NPC | Sushi and related food items; new consumables category |
| Electronics Store | Commercial / Loot | Electronic items, potential high-value loot |
| Parcel Office | Mission / Interaction | Packages with random value; the #update-sneaks preview showed a “POLICE BACKUP IN” countdown with a five-star wanted meter inside this location |
These four locations significantly expand the map’s commercial layer and create new route possibilities beyond the established Pawn Shop and Truck Stops loop.
Two New Machines
| Machine | Function |
|---|---|
| Vending Machine | Dispenses food and consumables |
| Coffee Machine | Dispenses coffee drinks |
These machines complement the new food items from Butcher Shop and Sushi Shop, giving players additional access to consumables without needing NPC interactions.
New Items
UPDATE 3 added a meaningful batch of new items across multiple categories:
- Steaks — food item from Butcher Shop
- Ribs — premium food item from Butcher Shop
- Coffee — drink dispensed from Coffee Machine
- Sushi — food item from Sushi Shop
- Ramen — food item, likely higher-tier meal
- Canned Food — preserved food item with long utility
- Packages — random-value parcels found at the Parcel Office; the sneak preview showed “0/1” mission tracking with a value range
- Secret items — developer noted some items are secret; treat unknown drops as intentional
- Secret weapons — developer noted at least one new weapon is hidden; discovery-based unlock
Career Menu
A new career menu tracks which items and locations the player has discovered. This is a progression layer that rewards exploration across the expanded map. The career menu records:
- Which locations the player has visited
- Which items the player has found
- Discovery completion for the new location set (Butcher Shop, Sushi Shop, Electronics Store, Parcel Office)
Paintings Finally Hang on Walls
A long-standing cosmetic complaint has been addressed. Paintings now render correctly on walls in interior locations. This is a visual fix more than a gameplay change, but it improves immersion significantly.
Car Skins
Beyond the car camos added in UPDATE 2, UPDATE 3 introduced additional car skins as a separate customization category. See Vehicle Customization for the full customization picture.
New End Screen
The game end screen received a visual refresh. The exact changes are undocumented beyond the “new end screen” label from the developer log.
50+ Bug Fixes
UPDATE 3 included over fifty bug fixes addressing various issues reported since beta launch. Specific fixes are not enumerated in the developer post.
