Eager to get your hands on the mobile adaptation of the popular multiplayer survival shooter Rust? You might get the chance sooner than expected—or later, depending on your region. The first closed beta for Rust Mobile is officially launching on November 1st!
Of course, a select few attending Gamescom in Cologne this month may have already had an early look. Rust Mobile was featured at a booth during the major gaming convention, offering some attendees hands-on time with the acclaimed multiplayer survival simulator.
We now have confirmation that the first official closed beta for Rust Mobile will go live later this year. As mentioned, it begins November 1st. That means even as the days grow shorter and temperatures drop, you can secure your spot in the world of Rust by registering for the closed beta today.
Rust combines intense shooter action, survival mechanics, and crafting—along with persistent multiplayer—to help define a genre it helped establish back in 2013. A mobile version has been highly anticipated, and this officially licensed adaptation shows great promise.
One of Rust’s key elements is the fiercely competitive combat between clans and smaller player groups. While daily PC sessions can be inconvenient, the ability to quickly log in on mobile and join the defense could make this a hit among both new and veteran players.
