Is Rust on Xbox Game Pass? Here's What You Need to Know

Rust is available on Xbox Game Pass, but there are a few important things to keep in mind.

As a Game Pass subscriber, you can download and play Rust Console Edition on your Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S. However, it's not as simple as just hitting the download button.

To actually play Rust on your Xbox, you'll need an online multiplayer subscription. This means you'll have to have either Game Pass Core or Game Pass Ultimate, which are sold separately from the basic Game Pass. It's a bit of an extra cost, but it's necessary for playing Rust.

Now, if you're a PC gamer hoping to play Rust through Game Pass on your computer, I've got some bad news. The version on Game Pass is only the Console Edition, which means it's exclusively for Xbox consoles.

If you want to play Rust on PC, you'll need to buy it separately on Steam.

So, in short: yes, Rust is on Xbox Game Pass, but you'll need an additional subscription to play online, and it's only for Xbox consoles. PC players will need to look elsewhere.
