About this list

Roleplay servers bolt rules and stories onto Rust. You might run a shop, join a faction, or play a character with a backstory. Killing on sight is usually against the rules. This list includes every online server that uses the roleplay tag or has 'roleplay' in its name, pulled from Steam every five minutes.

Worth knowing

Most roleplay servers run a monthly wipe, but a fair number only wipe at the force wipe even if they list something else. Check the Next wipe column before you start building. If you want a full story, the five busiest servers hold over a third of all roleplay players, so start there. Busy times shift by region: an evening in Europe is afternoon on the US east coast, and Australian peak is late morning in the UK. Group limits are usually the default 8, but some go lower, which changes how you settle in. Gather rates are often unstated, meaning 1x, though you will see 2x and 5x in the names. This is a modded scene almost entirely, and about three quarters are PvE.

Questions

What is a roleplay server in Rust?

A roleplay server adds rules and storylines on top of Rust. Players create characters, join towns or factions, and often cannot kill on sight. Admins enforce rules through plugins and active moderation. Most are modded and flagged PvE, but some allow PvP in designated zones.

Are Rust roleplay servers PvE?

Most are. Around three quarters of the servers on this list carry the PvE tag, meaning combat between players is restricted or disabled outside agreed events. Some run PvP zones or allow raiding during set hours. Always read the server's own rules before you pick a spot.

How do I join a roleplay server in Rust?

Open the in-game browser, search for the server name, and connect. Most want you to read their rules first, usually on their Discord, and some ask for a whitelist or a character application before you can play. Check the server's website or Discord for the entry process.

What are the rules on a Rust roleplay server?

Rules vary, but common ones are no random killing, no metagaming, no griefing, and staying in character in public chat. Admins may punish breaking character or offline raiding. The server's Discord or website lists the full rules. Breaking them can get you banned.

More about these servers

This list only includes servers that tag themselves as roleplay or put the word in their name, so a server running heavy RP without the tag will not appear. On a roleplay server the regulars are the game, so sort by Rank to find the ones people come back to every day. The table is sorted by players right now, but you can re-sort by Last wipe or Next wipe to catch a fresh world. If you want filters for region, group size or gather rate, the full list has them. Many roleplay servers are PvE, so the PvE list is worth a look too.
