Waves Of Change

CARGO SHIP DOCKING

We’ve given both Harbors a fresh coat of paint this month, with a significant amount of visual and gameplay changes. These changes support the new Cargo Ship docking process, which allows the ship to adjust it's course and dock with the harbor. Each harbor has a new island that can be reached by crossing a rotating bridge, floating containers or a daring set of jumps across cranes. This island becomes a stronghold once the Cargo Ship docks as it becomes sheltered from the...

RUST 10TH ANNIVERSARY

This month marks Rust's 10th birthday. We’ll celebrate from today till the 16th of December with in-game birthday cake, hats, throwbacks and some new items. Rust has undergone significant evolution since its launch in 2013. It initially began within the Unity Engine 4, playable in a web browser.

Coupling The Rails

ABOVE AND BELOW RAIL LINKING

This month we are finally connecting the above-ground rail network with the underground. While playing on servers with a world size of at least 4250, you will find one or two rail tunnels allowing you to seamlessly travel between the underground and above-ground networks. ...
