“It's like DayZ in first person with more crafting options and you are able to build fences and houses.”

About This Game

The only aim in Rust is to survive. Everything wants you to die - the island’s wildlife and other inhabitants, the environment, other survivors. Do whatever it takes to last another night.



Rust is in its 10th year and has now had over 375 content updates, with a guaranteed content patch every month. From regular balance fixes and improvements to AI and graphics updates to adding content like new maps, musical instruments, trains and drones, as well as regular seasons and events, there’s always something interesting or dangerous (or both) happening on the island. Updates to the game include:

  • Procedurally generated worlds with map editor support
  • Host your own servers and with server-side modding support
  • Vehicles: horses, modular cars, hot air balloons, helicopters, trains, boats and more
  • Complex electrical and automation systems
  • Farming
  • New enemies, wildlife and factions
  • New monuments and areas to explore
  • Gestures and contact system
  • Musical instruments
  • Large train network
  • Huge recent graphics overhaul
  • ..and more

EXPLORE


You wake naked on a mysterious island armed only with a rock and a torch. You’ll need to brave natural dangers (from heat and cold to thirst and starvation), build a shelter, eat (or be eaten), scavenge materials. Explore the island, its abandoned settlements, mysterious monuments and the factions that occupy them. But, above all, watch out for other survivors...

BUILD


Design and build bases to defend your territory or control the resources of the island. Research the tech tree, grow farms, command electricity, commandeer vehicles from horses to cars to boats to helicopters. Whatever it takes to get ahead.

SURVIVE


There are no rules in Rust but the ones you make for yourself. Craft tools, armor and weapons to defend yourself. Cooperate with friends and allies and build a town together. Explore the island and what’s happening in it. Trade with other players. Or prey on them, raiding their bases and taking their hard-won goods.
