Rank is players over the last seven days. A big server showing offline while the rest are up is that server restarting or wiping, not Rust being down.

This page answers one question: are public Rust servers reachable right now. The verdict above comes from our own read of the full server list, refreshed every five minutes, held against what is normal for this hour of the day.

How the verdict is reached

Every five minutes we count the public servers answering and the players on them. We compare that count with the same hour on recent days. Around the usual number, servers are up. A fall to roughly half the usual number is treated as an outage. One server missing from the list is that server, not Rust.

If the verdict says up but your browser is empty

  1. Restart Steam, then Rust. The in-game list is served by Steam, and a stale login can return nothing.
  2. Clear your server browser filters. A region or tag set weeks ago can hide every server.
  3. Check the force wipe date. For an hour after the monthly update, servers restart one at a time and the game must be on the new build.
  4. Turn off any VPN, and try a different network. The browser relies on UDP traffic that strict firewalls block.

If a single server is missing, its page at /servers/ip:port shows when it was last seen. For counts over time, see the /rust-live-player-count page.

The numbers behind the verdict

The counts below are live and unrounded: total public servers answering, total players online, and the share of the usual figure for this hour. Where a reading is more than twenty-five minutes old, it is marked as behind rather than presented as current.

Biggest servers

The largest servers by population are checked the same way. When the wide count holds but a handful of the biggest are absent, that points to those servers restarting or wiping, not to Rust itself.

Times are given in UK time with UTC in brackets.

Questions

Are Rust servers down right now?

The verdict at the top of this page is live. It comes from our reading of the public server list every five minutes, compared with the normal count for this hour. At 85% of normal or more, servers are up; below about half, we call it an outage.

Why does Rust show no servers when this page says they are up?

If the public list is healthy but your browser is empty, the fault is local or Steam-side. Restart Steam and Rust, clear your browser filters, check whether Steam is down, and on force wipe day update the game first. A single missing server is that server, not Rust.

How current is the status on this page?

The list is read every five minutes, and the time of the last read is shown with the verdict. A reading older than twenty-five minutes is labelled as behind. We do not fill gaps with estimates.
