Rust server hosting in Australia

Host a Rust dedicated server in Australia for your clan, a small community or a modded server. ASPEC Hosting runs Rust on the Extreme plan (8 GB RAM), billed in AUD.

From $72.00 AUD / month

Your own Rust server, hosted in Australia

Rust is one of the most demanding survival games to host, so we publish the minimum up front instead of selling a plan that cannot run it.

Rust dedicated hosting. Needs the Extreme plan (8 GB RAM). Same server can move to another compatible game from the control panel.

Built for heavy maps

Rust needs plenty of memory for the procedural map and entities, so it runs on our Extreme plan only.

Your wipe schedule

Facepunch forces a map wipe with the monthly update. Between forced wipes, you decide when to wipe your server.

Australian hosting

Australian owned, priced in AUD, with Sydney and Melbourne locations for Oceania players.

Configuring a server from this page preselects Rust as the first installation. You are buying game server capacity: the plan, location and billing stay with the server if you later install another compatible game.

Rust server hosting FAQ

How much does Rust server hosting cost in Australia?

Rust servers start at $72.00 AUD a month on the Extreme plan. Longer billing cycles carry a discount. The game you install never changes the price.

How much RAM does a Rust server need?

At least 8 GB of RAM and 20 GB of storage, on the performance CPU class or higher. We recommend 8 GB for a smoother experience. Plans below the minimum cannot install Rust.

Where are your Rust servers hosted?

In Australia. Our locations are Sydney and Melbourne. Each location's current availability is shown on the locations page.

Can I switch my Rust server to a different game?

Yes. You buy game server capacity, not a single game. Install another compatible game from the control panel and keep the same plan, location and billing. No new subscription or invoice is created.

When do Rust servers wipe?

Facepunch releases a monthly update on the first Thursday of the month (US time, which is Friday morning in Australia) and every server must wipe the map then. Many communities also wipe weekly or fortnightly in between.

What ports does a Rust server use?

Rust servers use UDP port 28015 for game traffic by default, with RCON usually on 28016.

How much RAM does a Rust server need?

We require 8 GB, which is the Extreme plan. Rust memory use grows with map size, entity count and plugins.
