What gets wiped at a force wipe

A force wipe is Facepunch's monthly update. Every server running the game has to update to the new version, and that is why almost all servers wipe around the same time.

Map

Always

The map is reset on updated servers. Structures, items and inventories on the old map are gone.

Blueprints

Depends

Whether blueprints are wiped too is not fixed. Facepunch states it in the update notes, and server owners can decide differently on their own server. Many servers announce a blueprint wipe with the force wipe, others keep blueprints.

These are servers we track that wipe today or in the next days. Most times are estimates based on each server's wipe history or on what the owner announced, so a server can wipe earlier or later than shown.

Estimated times are not promises. We only list servers we track; this is not a complete list of all Rust servers.

Rust wipe schedule: common questions

When is the next Rust force wipe?

The next force wipe is on 03 Dec 2026 at 19:00 London time. It always lands on the first Thursday of the month.

What time is the Rust force wipe?

At 19:00 London time. London switches between GMT and BST, so the time in your own zone can shift by an hour at the end of March and October.

When do Rust servers wipe?

Most servers wipe on a fixed rhythm, for example weekly or biweekly on the same weekday and time, and almost all of them wipe again at the monthly force wipe. The exact day and time is set by each server owner. On just-wiped you can see today's and this week's expected wipes above, and every server page shows its own next wipe.

What is the difference between a map wipe and a blueprint wipe?

A map wipe resets the world, bases and items. A blueprint wipe additionally resets learned blueprints. Force wipes always include a map wipe; blueprint wipes depend on Facepunch and the server owner.

How accurate are the estimated wipe times?

They are estimates from each server's past wipes and from what owners announce. They can be off, especially for servers that change their schedule. We mark every estimated time as such and never promise an exact wipe.

Why are some servers missing?

We only list servers we track. Servers we do not track, or that block our queries, do not appear.
