Facepunch Studios and publisher Double Eleven have announced new versions of the popular survival simulator Rust for current generation consoles.

Here's What We Know

The developers presented Rust New Gen - a separate version of the game for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. So far, the public was presented only a small teaser, which does not reveal any details, but it is stated that the authors will implement features and capabilities that were unavailable on PS4 and Xbox One.

Facepunch Studios promises the release of Rust New Gen "soon", but another important question was left undisclosed: whether those users who bought the game on last generation consoles will get the updated version for free or will have to buy it again.

Many years have passed since the release of Rust, but this game is still very popular. Thus, in Steam for the last 24 hours the peak online was 150 thousand people.
