Official Rust servers, live now

This list holds only servers in Rust's own Official tab: Facepunch's and those of approved partners. Updates land every five minutes, so the population, queue and wipe columns are as close to now as the data gets.

Sort by players before you commit. An official server with a queue is not broken; it is busy, and that tells you when to join or wait.

Right now: 246 official servers are online on this list.

Check three columns in order. Population shows how full it is; a queue next to it means slots are gone. Next wipe is an estimate taken from each server's past wipes, so treat it as a guide rather than a promise. Group limit matters if you play solo or small: a blank cell is Rust's default of eight, and anything lower is stated.

The largest populations cluster on EU hosts, so the queue peaks in the European evening. If you are elsewhere, filter by region first, then look at the clock.

Published wipe schedules and real behaviour do not always match. Most official servers say monthly but in practice restart every week or fortnight on a fixed weekday, often Thursday. The estimate column follows the pattern; the published line does not.

Gather rates here are mostly vanilla at 1x, and the Tags column flags the exceptions. If you want finer filters than this tag gives you, region, group size and wipe day are all on the full server list. Servers run by players rather than partners sit on the community list, and the untagged version of the same straight-play question is on the vanilla list.
