Rust wipe schedule

From 37,544 wipes over the last 4 weeks, as seen on the server list.

Every public server wipes at the monthly force wipe. Between force wipes, each owner sets a rhythm: weekly, biweekly or monthly, on a chosen day and hour.

The tables below are built from wipes Rust Server Stats has recorded, refreshed every five minutes. They show what servers did, not what they advertise. The force wipe countdown and the next and last wipes for each server follow the heatmap in the order listed.

Q.Questionsand their answers

1.When is the next Rust force wipe?

Force wipe falls on the first Thursday of each month, at 19:00 UK time, when Facepunch ships the game update. The countdown on this page gives the time remaining to the next one. Every public server wipes at that moment, whatever its own cycle.

2.How often do Rust servers wipe?

Most run a weekly cycle; biweekly and monthly servers make up the remainder, and the split is shown in the table above. The cycle a server follows is recorded here from its observed wipes. A server's own description may state a schedule, but the table reports what it did.

3.Which day and hour are busiest for wipes?

Of note, the heatmap above shows Thursday as the busiest wipe day at present, and evening hours in the server's home region carry most wipes. Times are given in UTC; UK time is UTC in winter and one hour ahead in summer. US Eastern is four hours behind UTC in summer.
