Black List is a large seasonal event in Grand Mobile focused on car theft, racing, and open-world PvP activities.

In this guide, we break down all the mechanics in detail: how vehicle theft works, what affects rewards, how to progress through the event, and how to compete in the leaderboards.

At the center of the event are car theft contracts.

You take a contract, locate a specific vehicle, hack it, and attempt to deliver it to the designated drop-off point.

However, it’s not as simple as it sounds:

The better you complete the task, the greater the reward.

There are three types of gameplay activities in the event.

This is the core activity of the event.

A contract is a mission that looks like this:
​“Steal a specific vehicle and deliver it to the drop-off point.”

Completing contracts grants:

Races are the main source of reputation.

If you don’t have enough reputation to unlock new contracts, you’ll need to participate in races to continue progressing in the event.

You can also interfere with other car thieves:

These actions also grant rewards.

Open the event interface.

Complete the tutorial.

Take your first contract.

The tutorial is mandatory — without completing it, the event will not unlock.

The tutorial takes 5–10 minutes and introduces all the key mechanics of the event:

After completing the tutorial, all players start the event under roughly equal conditions.

⚠️ If you leave during the tutorial, you will need to complete it again from the beginning.

You can also replay the tutorial later if something is unclear. To do this, open the Information tab and press “Replay Tutorial.”

A contract consists of four stages.

You select an available mission in the event menu.

Important:

A search zone appears on the map.

Inside this area is the target vehicle required for the mission.

Only that specific car counts for the contract — other vehicles will not work.

This is the key mechanic of the contract.

A circle with symbols appears on the screen.

Your task is to:

If the hack is successful:

If the hack fails:

This means the hacking result directly affects the difficulty of the contract.

Once you get into the car, the main phase begins.

You will see:

Your goal is to reach the delivery point before:

Each vehicle has a hidden durability parameter.

Durability decreases from:

Why this matters:

Even minor crashes can reduce the final payout for the mission.

During delivery, random issues may occur.

They appear unexpectedly and make the vehicle theft more challenging.

The car may start jerking or losing speed.

You can:

The map marker disappears.

You can either:

Driving at very high speeds may cause the engine to overheat.

If ignored, the vehicle’s maximum speed will decrease.

The car becomes harder to control.

You can:

Sometimes a contract starts with additional difficulty modifiers.

For example:

These modifiers are displayed in the contract description before you start.

More difficult contracts offer higher rewards.

A contract is considered failed if:

If a contract fails, no rewards are given.

However, reputation is not deducted.

Tips:

Later in the event, you can also upgrade stealth to reduce the risk of being detected.

Black List is not only about stealing vehicles — it also includes competitive mechanics between players. When one player is trying to deliver a stolen car, others can intervene and attempt to stop them from completing the contract.

Any nearby player can join the counteraction and try to intercept the car thief.

When a player starts delivering a stolen vehicle, nearby players receive a notification about the contract.

The notification shows:

After pressing the button, the contract will be added to your tracking, allowing you to start pursuing the target.

You can join the counteraction in two ways.

Press the “Track” button.
A map marker will appear showing the location of the stolen vehicle.

Open the section:

Contracts → Counteraction

Here you will see active thefts within your radius.

The list displays:

You can track only one contract at a time.

Once tracking begins:

This makes it easier to quickly locate the thief and begin the pursuit.

Players can use any in-game methods to prevent the vehicle from being delivered:

If the vehicle is completely destroyed, the contract is considered failed.

There are several rules when participating in counteraction.

Players cannot:

The vehicle always remains assigned to the player who accepted the contract.

Players who participate in stopping a car thief receive:

The reward amount depends on the outcome:

Important: rewards are granted only to players who started tracking the contract.

Example of successful counteraction:

​Example of unsuccessful counteraction:
​

Many players think the event is only about car theft — that’s a misconception.

Races provide:

If you get stuck in progression, participating in races is the best way to move forward.

There are several race formats in the event:

The higher your finishing position, the greater the reward.

During the event, you can upgrade character skills.
These upgrades significantly affect how difficult the event feels and how efficiently you can complete contracts.

Improves the vehicle hacking mini-game:

Focused on vehicle survivability during delivery:

Designed for PvP situations:

The event features a competitive ranking system. Players compete with each other by completing contracts, participating in races, and earning event points.

The more actively a player participates, the higher they climb in the leaderboards and the more valuable rewards they can receive.

Two types of rankings are used in the event.

When a player enters the event for the first time, they are automatically placed into a small group of participants.

Each group contains a limited number of players.
Players compete only within their group, not against the entire server.

Ranking within the group is based on the number of leaderboard points earned during the current event period.

Features of the local ranking:

At the end of each period:

This system allows players to compete against opponents with similar activity levels.

In addition to local groups, the event also includes a server-wide global leaderboard.

This ranking includes all players on the server participating in the event.

Positions are determined by the total amount of event reputation earned.

This leaderboard shows who the best car thief on the server is.

Players who achieve high positions in the rankings receive special rewards.

Depending on the type of ranking, rewards may include:

Some rewards are unique and can only be obtained once.
Vehicles earned during the event cannot be traded or sold to other players.

In the Shop tab, players can spend event resources to obtain various items that help complete contracts faster and more safely.

The shop includes several categories.

Consumables help deal with different problems that may occur during contracts and vehicle deliveries.

Available items include:

These items are especially useful during difficult contracts with multiple malfunctions or modifiers.

The shop also offers special boosters that allow players to progress through the event faster.

Players can purchase:

These items do not give a direct leaderboard advantage, but they make the event more convenient and efficient to play.

The shop also offers reward cases.

Cases can contain various event items and bonuses.
There are several types of cases, each with different possible rewards.

Fuel acts as the energy system for starting contracts and races.

If a player runs out of fuel, it can be replenished by pressing the “+” icon near the fuel indicator, allowing you to continue participating in the event without waiting.

Players can also purchase cosmetic rewards such as:

These items do not affect progression, but allow players to stand out among other event participants.

Some vehicles in the shop are initially locked.

To unlock them:

The player must complete a contract involving the theft of that specific vehicle model.

After a successful delivery, the vehicle becomes available in the shop showcase.

It will also receive a temporary discount available only during the event period.

This mechanic allows players to test the vehicle during a contract first, and then purchase it later at a reduced price if they wish.

When the season ends:

However:

In other words, the event will transition into permanent game content, but with smaller rewards.
