The host session is still running
Get back into that session. Your hands, your worn gear and wherever you were standing are the three things worth checking.

Big Walk Lost & Found: Where Missing Items Go
If the host ended your game while you were holding or wearing an item, check Lost & Found when the next session starts.
For where each carried item normally comes from, see the Items & Tools overview.
Quick Answer
One sentence from inside the game covers the whole rule.
When the host ends your game, anything you’re holding or wearing will be placed here at the start of your next session.
- When to look
- The start of your next session with the same host — not after a timer.
- Where to look
- Lost & Found in the Spawn Hub, the courtyard you start from.
If the item was already lying somewhere in the world, do not assume Lost & Found has it. An item nobody was holding or wearing falls back on its own source or guide.
Find My Missing Item
Three answers separate the documented recovery from the cases that belong to an item, a route or a connection.
What went missing?
What happened?
Were you holding or wearing it?
Answer the three questions above to see where your case belongs.
Where Is Lost & Found?
It is in the hub you start from, so you pass it on the way in rather than travelling to reach it.
- Area
- Spawn Hub
- What it is
- 들고 있거나 착용하던 아이템을 되찾을 수 있는 복구 지점
- When it helps
- After a host-ended session, at the start of your next one
There is no unlock step and nothing to pay. Walk up and take back what was kept for you.
Show It on the MapWhat Is Confirmed to Go There?
The in-game rule names two states, not a list of items. Anything you were carrying in one of those two ways is covered.
Held
The item was in your hands when the host ended the game.
Worn
The item was equipped on your body when the host ended the game.
Common examples
Things players most often have on them when a session stops:
- A Backpack you were wearing
- Worn gear such as a Holster
- A tool or prop in your hands
- Something you were carrying for a puzzle
Those are examples rather than a compatibility list, and an item counts because of how you were holding it, not because of what it is.
The Host Ended the Session
This is the one route the game documents, so work through it in order.
1. Were you holding or wearing the item?
Then it was kept for you and is waiting at Lost & Found.
2. Was it lying loose in the world?
Then recovery is up to the item, and its own guide is the next stop.
You do not wait out a countdown. The documented moment is the start of your next session, so reopen the game with the same host and look straight away.
Open the recovery checkerI Disconnected Instead
“You lost connection to the host unexpectedly” is its own message, and it is not the same event as the host ending the game.
The host session ended afterwards
Once that host starts the journey again, the recovery rule applies and Lost & Found is worth a look at the start of the session.
You still cannot get in
That is a connection fault rather than a lost item, and the multiplayer troubleshooter covers what the game reports.
Open the multiplayer troubleshooterI Dropped the Item Before the Session Ended
Items on the ground are a different case from items on you.
The rule above only names what you were holding or wearing, so a dropped item is not something Lost & Found promises to return.
What to try instead
- 1Go back to the spot where you left it.
- 2If it has gone from there, open the item’s guide for where it normally comes from.
- 3Rejoin with the same host so you are looking at the journey you actually played.
- 4If the host ended the session after you dropped it, check Lost & Found too.
Players often see loose world items back at their normal spot after reloading. That is worth trying, but it behaves item by item rather than as one rule for everything.
Missing Backpack
A Backpack can go missing for two completely different reasons, so pick the one that matches you.
You were wearing it when the session ended
That is the documented case. The Backpack is waiting at Lost & Found at the start of the next session, along with whatever it was holding.
You never had one, or you left it in the world
Then this is a sourcing question. Backpacks come from set places, and the Backpack guide lists them.
Missing Big Key
A Big Key is progression, not carried gear, so it does not belong in the recovery model above.
What looks like a missing key is usually unfinished route state: a key waiting at its cutters, a key already delivered, or a different destination than the one you are standing at.
Open the Big Key route checkerMy Item Is Not in Lost & Found
Work down this list in order. It covers nearly every case where the item should have been there.
1. Had the session actually ended?
While the host is still running the game, nothing has been handed over yet, so there is nothing to collect.
2. Were you holding or wearing it?
If it was on the ground or inside a container you left behind, the rule does not name it.
3. Are you on the same host’s journey?
A different host is running a different save, so their hub will not hold your item.
4. Is it still on you?
Check your hands, your worn gear and any bag you are carrying before deciding it is missing.
5. Is it a puzzle or progression object?
Tiles, rewards and Big Keys answer to their own systems rather than to this recovery point.
6. Did you lose connection instead?
A dropped connection is its own problem with its own fix.
Are You on the Same Host’s Journey?
Progress belongs to the host who saved it, so the wrong session can look like a missing item.
If somebody else hosts, or the original host starts a fresh journey, you are standing in a different save. Your item is not gone; you are looking in the wrong one.
How hosting and saves workLost & Found FAQ
Big Walk의 유실물 센터는 어디에 있나요?
Spawn Hub, 즉 처음 시작하는 안뜰에 있어요. 허브 안의 회수 지점이며 퍼즐 지역이나 별도의 구역은 아니에요.
Spawn Hub 위치 →호스트가 게임을 종료하면 아이템은 어떻게 되나요?
손에 들고 있거나 몸에 착용한 아이템은 보관돼요. 세션과 함께 사라지지 않고, 다음 세션이 시작될 때 유실물 센터에 나타나요.
무엇이 그곳으로 가는지 →호스트가 세션을 종료한 게 아니라 제 연결이 끊긴 경우엔 어떻게 되나요?
먼저 같은 세션에 다시 연결하세요. 연결이 끊긴 것은 별개의 문제이며, 회수 규칙은 연결 끊김이 아니라 호스트가 게임을 종료한 경우를 기준으로 해요.
연결이 끊겼을 때의 경로 →제 아이템이 유실물 센터에 없는 이유는 뭔가요?
흔한 이유 네 가지를 순서대로 확인하세요. 세션이 아직 진행 중이거나, 그 아이템을 들거나 착용하고 있지 않았거나, 다른 호스트의 저장 데이터에 들어와 있거나, 퍼즐이나 진행 요소에 귀속된 아이템일 수 있어요.
여전히 없음 →떨어뜨린 아이템도 유실물 센터로 가나요?
위 규칙으로는 아니에요. 이 규칙은 들고 있거나 착용한 아이템만 다루거든요. 월드에 그냥 놓아둔 아이템은 다른 경우라서 아이템마다 동작이 달라요.
떨어뜨린 아이템 →유실물 센터에서 Big Key를 되찾을 수 있나요?
아니요. Big Key는 해당 루트에 묶인 진행 상태라서, 잃어버린 장비처럼 찾지 말고 그 열쇠가 이미 무엇을 했는지 확인하세요.
