Rust is Facepunch Studios’ multiplayer survival game, where you start with nothing on a hostile island, gather resources, build a base and fight or trade with other players. It launched on PC in 2018 and still gets a major update almost every month, from the naval update to October 2026’s Livestock farming.

This hub collects all of iGame’s Rust coverage: update breakdowns, beginner guides and the big changes that reshape each wipe.
