Big Update: Route 66, New Dashboard, Map Overhaul and Much More
Hello everyone,
Since the last patch notes we have been working non-stop. This update touches almost every corner of BELLOCCO: a brand new family heist system, a completely new dashboard, a big map overhaul, a new Activities hub, a fully updated Wiki and dozens of redesigned pages. Grab a coffee, this is a long one.
1. Route 66: the new family heist
The old family robbery is gone. Route 66 is a completely new system where your whole family can take part, even when not everyone is online at the same time. You find it in the right menu under your family (Robbery, Route 66).
- Every member can set up an operation: pick a job and your own role (Safecracker, Muscle, Lookout or Driver).
- A family can run up to 3 operations at the same time, each with its own crew. Bigger jobs need more people: gas station up to 8, armored car up to 16, bank heist up to 30.
- Preparation happens in four stations: Break-in, Weapons, Recon and Getaway. Every 10 minutes you can press Prepare and deliver points to the station of your role. The more power you have, the more you deliver. Nobody can fill a station alone, so you need your family.
- The execution runs in four rounds: Recon, Break-in, Grab loot and Escape. Every round has its own live chance, shown on the operation card. A role nobody filled is a weak link.
- Pass every round for the full loot. Fail at Grab loot and you keep 35%, fail at Escape and you keep 60%.
- Part of the loot goes to the family bank. The rest is split by how much each member prepared, and the MVP gets an extra bonus.
- On a failed round every crew member risks prison. Good recon and a driver lower that risk.
- After an operation only you rest (30 minutes, shorter with a lookout). The rest of the family can start the next one right away.
- The History tab shows every finished operation with the four rounds as green, red or grey icons.

2. The map and spots: big overhaul
The map (Crime, Map) got a large update. Spots are pieces of street you or your family can own, and every spot pays hourly income for as long as you hold it.
- Conquering: you need a plane to drop bombs. Free spots are held by a small guard. A rival's spot has a status bar and possibly walls: walls fall first, then the status. Bombs can miss (duds, walls and a worn-out plane increase misses) and you can get injured.
- After an attack a spot is too hot for a while, and a freshly conquered spot is damaged but protected. Reinforce it quickly.
- Limits: a maximum number of spots per player and a maximum number of bombs per attack.
- Building: build businesses on your spot (Cafe, Laundromat, Pawn shop, Nightclub, Poker hall). Each can be built once per spot and raises your hourly income.
- Upgrading: every business can be upgraded up to a maximum level, each level adds income on top of the base. Higher levels cost more.
- Walls: build a limited number of walls with a cooldown between them. Attackers have to demolish them first.
- Repairers: search for them for free (with a cooldown, sometimes a lucky double catch). They restore your spot's status automatically and are consumed after repairing 100%.
- Family: members cannot attack each other's spots and can reinforce each other's spots with repairers. Spots of players with a family get a defence bonus.
- Defensive stance: as owner you choose a stance for your spot (Balanced, or a stance that trades income for defence or the other way around), with a cooldown between changes.

3. Completely new Dashboard
The dashboard was rebuilt from scratch.
- Left: your player card with avatar, badges, health, wallet and your four positions (rank, wealth, crime, murder).
- Live tiles: World Boss, running tournaments, State Auction (with countdown and current bid), season and Battlepass tier, and the current city event.
- Ready to do and Cooling down: one table with everything you can do right now and everything that is still on cooldown, with timers.
- Tabs for Ranks, Goals, Income and Stats, with progress bars and exactly what you still need for the next rank.
- Latest news, a Wiki shortcut, daily deal, your next onboarding step and an invite card for your crew.
- New: Income is now a direct link in the left menu under Dashboard and in the Finance hub. It shows every hourly income source in one overview.
- Fixed: rank percentages on the dashboard were wrapping on mobile.
4. Activities hub and new Achievements
Under My Empire you now find one link: Activities. It bundles the Login bonus, Daily tasks, Weekly challenges, Tournaments and Achievements in five tabs. You never have to click anything to take part: every action counts automatically towards all of them at once.
- Achievements got a complete redesign: a category menu on the left, progress per category, Almost there and Recent sections, and a clean list with a progress bar under every achievement. Works without scrolling on mobile.
- Tournaments: smaller, clearer text and live standings.
5. Season page
The season page is now a modern overview with live standings, a leaderboard table and the Hall of Fame, plus animations. The menu now highlights Season, World Boss and Statistics correctly.
6. City events
City events got clearer titles and a short advice line so you immediately know what to do during the event. Four events were renamed to make their effect obvious.
7. Voting: streak bonus
Vote For Us is now worth more. Every day you vote your streak grows: +10% reward per day up to 10 days, and every 7th day you also receive a vault code. The countdown now keeps running in background tabs and a bug that could give a double reward was fixed.
8. Invite friends: new reward ladder
The Invite page was rebuilt with a share card, a reward ladder from Recruiter (1 friend) all the way up to La Cosa Nostra (100 friends, millions in cash, diamonds and a year of VIP), your invites and the top 5 recruiters. You get cash, bullets, power and XP for every friend who joins and stays active, and your friend gets a welcome bonus.
9. Redesigned pages
- State Auction: ring countdown, facts table, bid history and previous auctions, bidder names inline. Quick bid chips fixed.
- Bank: all inputs now use the same BELLOCCO style and size, no more overflow on mobile.
- Vault codes: a vault door animation and a clear code entry.
- Tuning shop: a compact vehicle picker instead of a wall of cars, a spotlight bay with gauges and inline part selection.
- Showroom: a spotlight stage plus a searchable catalogue with class filters.
- Garage: new visual effects on the vehicle detail page.
- Support: help cards and ticket categories, new ticket form next to your tickets.
- Tables everywhere no longer run off the screen on mobile.
10. Wiki fully updated
The Wiki is now complete and up to date, in English and Dutch, with 19 new guides: Activities, Login bonus, Daily tasks, Weekly challenges, Tournaments, Achievements, Season and Battlepass, Map and spots, City events, Voting, Invite friends, Support tickets, Menu and navigation, Route 66, Vault codes, State Auction, Tuning and garage, Showroom and Dashboard. Every page in the game links to the matching guide.

11. App
