Harder Core

HARDCORE REFRESH Hardcore mode is making a comeback this month, bringing with it some community requested changes and a few new tweaks we've been planning for a while. Our goal with game modes, such as Primitive and Hardcore, is to offer a fresh way to experience Rust, see how players respond, and try out different ideas.

Currently we do not include Rust's standalone DLC such as...
