RODOGRAU Explore the Open World
A comprehensive guide to every area in the RODOGRAU 2.0 map, from urban streets to coastal highways.
Welcome to the RODOGRAU Map Guide. The open-world city in RODOGRAU 2.0 is inspired by Brazilian urban environments, featuring diverse neighborhoods, highways, coastal areas, and hidden locations worth exploring. This guide covers every key area to help you navigate and find the best spots for your preferred activities.
São Bernardo District
The newest major map addition, São Bernardo, is a detailed urban neighborhood that arrived in March 2025. This district offers a distinct atmosphere compared to other areas of the city.
Key Features
São Bernardo features narrow alleys (becos) and backstreets (vielas) that create technical navigation challenges for experienced riders. A dedicated wheelie avenue runs through the district, providing an ideal space for practicing extended wheelies away from heavy traffic.
The area includes various buildings and streets designed to resemble real Brazilian urban environments. A notable landmark is the Assembly of God church, which adds authentic cultural detail to the cityscape.
Getting There
São Bernardo is accessible via the main highway system. Look for the district signage when approaching from the city center. The area connects to multiple routes making it easy to incorporate into any journey across the map.
Brazilândia
Brazilândia is a favela-style neighborhood that serves as both a landmark and an activity hub. The area is known for its distinctive architecture and community character.
Christmas Gift Location
During the December 2025 holiday update, Brazilândia hosted one of two hidden gift locations. Players who explored the area carefully could discover festive presents earning special badge rewards. Even outside holiday events, Brazilândia offers challenging terrain and unique atmosphere for exploration.
Practice Opportunities
The varied elevation and mix of wide and narrow streets in Brazilândia make it suitable for practicing different riding techniques. Watch for traffic and pedestrians when navigating the area at speed.
The Highway System (Rodovia)
The highway network connects all major areas of the RODOGRAU 2.0 map and serves as the primary route for long-distance travel and high-speed riding.
Highway Features
The rodovia received significant visual and functional upgrades in September 2026, including improved road surfaces, enhanced night-time lighting, and better scenery along routes. These changes make highway wheelies more visually rewarding and slightly easier to control.
Wide lanes and relatively light traffic make the highway ideal for extended wheelies at cruising speed. The highway is also the primary route to coastal areas and other outlying districts.
Safety Tips
While highways offer excellent riding conditions, always watch for other players and automated traffic. Use appropriate signals (X to activate turn signals, L for headlights at night) to maintain visibility.
Beach and Coastal Area (Praia)
The beach area accessible via the coastal highway offers a different riding experience compared to urban districts.
Igaratá and Garatá
The area near Igaratá and Garatá represents one of the most scenic parts of the map. A condominium in this area provides interesting architecture, though full access may require membership in the O Recomeço RDG group. The route to the beach passes through varied terrain that showcases the map’s diversity.
Beach Atmosphere
The coastal area features a reservoir or waterfront environment rather than a traditional ocean beach. The terrain creates unique photography opportunities and a relaxed atmosphere for cruising. Water areas are accessible for swimming or jet ski use if you have the appropriate gamepass.
Francisco Morato Area
The Francisco Morato district serves as a practical hub for motorcycle customization and services.
The Garage
A physical garage located in the Francisco Morato area provides access to the full motorcycle customization menu. To use it:
- Grab or spawn the motorcycle you want to customize
- Ride to the garage area
- Enter the garage in reverse (de ré)
- The customization menu will appear automatically
The garage offers paint options, kit modifications, and the ability to strip bikes (depenada) by removing fairings, mirrors, and other parts.
Chile and Desert Area
For players seeking a completely different environment, the Chile/desert area provides expansive open terrain beyond the urban core.
Desert Landscape
The desert area features distinctive terrain different from the city and coastal zones. Wide-open spaces make it suitable for high-speed runs and dramatic wheelies in a sparse environment. The area connects to the main road network via highway ramps.
Exploration Value
The desert area demonstrates the map’s scale and variety. While less populated with activities than urban zones, it offers a peaceful alternative for players wanting to escape the busy city streets.
Secret and Hidden Areas
RODOGRAU 2.0 contains several secret locations that reward curious explorers.
Hidden Collectibles
During update events, hidden items appear throughout the map. The December 2025 update placed collectible gifts in Brazilândia and the Igaratá area. Exploring thoroughly after updates often reveals these surprises.
Island Access
Some versions of the map include island locations accessible via water routes. Jet ski or boat transportation may be required depending on your gamepass status. These isolated areas offer unique scenery and reduced traffic.
Map Tips for New Players
Finding Your Way
Use the highway system as your primary orientation tool. Major highways connect all districts and provide the fastest routes between areas. Urban streets offer more exploration but take longer to navigate.
