Officially licensed by Facepunch Studios, Rust Mobile stays true to the uncompromising spirit of the original, delivering a survival experience fans know and love. From open-world exploration and ruthless PvP combat to base building and the tension of trust and betrayal, the mobile version captures the essence of Rust.

Played from a first-person perspective in a real-time, fully immersive world, players face constant danger, whether from hostile wildlife or rival survivors. A fully explorable sandbox with dynamic day-night cycle, weather systems, and region-based biomes also adds deep environmental strategy. Core gameplay pillars like scavenging, crafting, building, raiding, and permadeath remain intact, where every decision can mean life or death.

In Rust Mobile players can choose how they want to survive, by going full PvP or playing at their own pace, offering more flexibility while staying true to the tension and danger of the original. Tailored for mobile lifestyles, Rust Mobile makes it easier than ever to jump into the survival experience, whether you're at home, on your commute, or in between.

Rust Mobile will officially participate in gamescom 2025, the world's largest gaming event, in Cologne from 20th to 24th August, marking the first-ever public hands-on demo of the game.

Players interested in survival and PvP should head to Hall 6.1, Booth C-051g, where they can try out the all-new Rust Mobile experience and also pick up exclusive posters and merch while supplies last.
