Rust, the iconic survival game, is finally stepping into the mobile arena. This February 2025, Rust Mobile will conduct a 7-day alpha test exclusively for Android users in Canada. If you have a high-end device and a love for survival challenges, this is your chance to be among the first to experience the mobile adaptation of this classic game. With over 12 million copies of Rust sold globally on PC since its debut in 2013, it’s clear this is no ordinary launch.
When and Where
The Rust Mobile alpha test will take place for seven days in February 2025. Specific dates are yet to be announced, but what we know so far is that Android users in Canada are included. More countries might get announced down the road.
Device Requirements
Not all devices will be able to handle Rust Mobile. To participate, you’ll need:
- Processor: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or equivalent.
- RAM: 6 GB or more.
- Storage: At least 4 GB of free space.
This high-performance threshold ensures a smooth gaming experience, but it limits access to top-tier devices only.

Gameplay and Features
Rust Mobile promises to stay true to the core gameplay of the original. Players can expect:
- PvP Combat: Test your skills against rival players.
- Base-Building: Secure your base and resources.
- Survival Mechanics: Manage hunger, thirst, and health while fending off wild animals and hostile players.
There’s speculation that mobile-friendly tweaks will enhance usability, making the game more accessible on touchscreens.

Confidentiality Rules
Participants must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). This means no streaming, no screenshots, and no sharing gameplay content. Data will be wiped after the test, and monetization features are excluded during this phase.

How to Stay Updated
As of now, the sign-up page and exact dates haven’t been revealed. To stay in the loop, follow Enduins for more updates.
