A Newcomer map is a map sold at many general stores for one coin. It is also sold by Rasolo and Trader crewmembers for 2 coins.
The map helps new players of the game find their way around Gielinor. The map does not give clear directions, but shows a general view of eastern Asgarnia and western Misthalin, being the main Free-to-play area of the game. The map will also display the rough location of the player with a blinking X on the map. This item is not particularly useful anymore due to the world map interface serving a similar purpose.

Trivia
- This item was once used to scam other players by convincing them it was a Christmas cracker due to the fact that the two look similar.
- Despite this item's examine text stating that it is "issued to all new citizens of Gielinor", it is not issued to any new citizens of Gielinor, and must be purchased.
