What is a force wipe in Rust?
A force wipe is a mandatory server reset pushed by Facepunch every month. All player bases, items, and progress are wiped, and a new game map is generated. Servers must apply the update to run correctly.
What's the difference between force wipe and weekly wipe?
Force wipe (monthly) wipes everything including blueprints on BP-enabled servers and forces a map update. Weekly wipes (every Thursday) only reset the map and items — blueprints are often kept.
What time does Rust wipe in my timezone?
11:00 AM US Pacific converts to 2:00 PM Eastern, 7:00 PM UK and 8:00 PM Central Europe all year, and to 3:00 AM (summer) or 4:00 AM (winter) next-day Tokyo. The countdown on this page shows the exact time in your local timezone automatically.
Do all Rust servers wipe at the same time?
No. The force wipe date is fixed, but individual servers choose their wipe time within a ~24 hour window. Most community servers wipe within 1–4 hours of the official Facepunch wipe.
