Rust Mobile set to launch open beta this summer
The mobile version of the cult survival game Rust is finally approaching full testing. The developers have officially confirmed that Rust Mobile will launch an open beta test this summer with the first players gaining access on July 9th. For now, the test phase will be limited to two regions: Hong Kong and Macau.
When the beta goes live, entry will be available exclusively to Android users. There is no information yet regarding the iOS version, although the developers has indicated that testing on Apple devices could begin later — toward the end of summer or as early as this fall.
One of the key features of the new phase will be the elimination of pre-registration. Unlike previous tests, this time, players won't have to apply or wait for invitations. Simply download the client after its release in digital stores and secure a free server spot. At the moment, Rust Mobile's Google Play and App Store pages for these regions have not yet appeared.

Judging by official posts on Western social media, the game is expected to support the English language. This could significantly expand interest beyond Asia, especially among fans of the original PC version of Rust.
Many players already consider the launch of Rust Mobile one of the most highly anticipated mobile events of this summer. The project aims to bring a full-fledged survival experience to smartphones: resource gathering, base building, raids, PvP battles, and the constant fight to survive in a dangerous open world. These elements have made Rust one of the most popular survival games on PC for many years.
Despite the excitement, concerns remain regarding possible regional restrictions. The community are hoping that the developers will not implement strict account verification, identity checks, or license requirements that could hinder access to testing for users in other countries.
