Players looking for the ultimate competitive survival experience on console will be able to play online with up to 100 others when the game<\/a> hits in a few months. Waking up on a mysterious post-apocalyptic island littered with dilapidated industrial monuments and probing scientists, it\u2019s up to you to figure out how to keep yourself alive in a world where everything wants you dead. <\/p>\n
In Rust<\/em>, there is one goal above everything else: survive. Conquer thirst and hunger, battle the elements, create clothing and stay safe against hostile forces including other players, scientists, bears, wolves or even succumb to fire, drowning or radiation poisoning. A game without rules, Rust<\/em> doesn\u2019t tell its inhabitants what to do. Players are free to be deceptive and aggressive with intense player vs. player combat, raiding and looting, but there is potentially even more to be earned with a team of friendly players by your side. In the struggle for survival and supremacy, players can build tiny cabins in the woods to huge scrap metal fortresses in an attempt to stay safe, as well as craft a variety of weapons, bombs and traps. <\/p>\n
Since Rust<\/em>\u2018s initial launch into Steam Early Access in 2013, millions of players have populated its world and taken part in the ultimate social<\/a> experiment, making it one of the most played games on Steam. The title has evolved from its earliest days as a primal-survival game to one that stands out among its competitors \u2013 featuring shockingly detailed worlds to explore and build in, filled with a variety of gameplay styles, weapons, crafts and above all else: combat.<\/p>\n
Development and publishing of Rust<\/em> for the PlayStation and Xbox consoles is being developed by UK-based Double Eleven, independent from the original PC version\u2019s developer and publisher Facepunch. <\/p>\n
