Are Rust’s servers down?

If you are having trouble logging in to the servers of Rust, there might be some issues with the servers of the game. Here are the ways through which you can know if the servers of Rust are down or not.

How to check the status of Rust’s servers

If the servers are down, you will most likely face trouble getting into the game. So, the first step to check if the servers are down is to log in to the game. If you can log in to the game without any error, the servers are just fine and running.

However, if you are facing login issues and suspect a server outage, head over to the official handles of Rust. You can visit their official website or Twitter account. The developers are supposed to make the community aware as soon as they notice any server outage from their side.

If you cannot find any reliable information on the official website or the Twitter account, head over to the Rust Downdetector Page. This is a dedicated web page for gathering active reports of any server outage faced by any other players. If you see a spike in the number of reports in the past few hours, understand that you are not the only one facing this issue.

If you still do not find any issue with the servers, it is very much possible that the issue is on your end. The easiest way to troubleshoot the problem is to restart your game and your PC. This often fixes any small issue that your game might have been facing.

If your game is not running even after restarting your PC, check the internet connection that you are using. Check properly if you have an active internet connection to your PC or not. You can also try restarting your router if you are using a WiFi network.

All of these methods shall be enough to solve your issue with Rust’s servers. However, if the issue is still not fixed, try uninstalling all the game files and reinstalling the game again.
