WARHAMMER 40,0000 & RUST CROSSOVER


Survival is no longer enough - now, there is only sacrifice in the name of duty.



Facepunch Studios is very excited to announce a landmark collaboration in the form of a new crossover: Warhammer 40,000 is officially coming to Rust!

In this alliance with Warhammer, Facepunch will bring the grimdark future of the 41st millennium to the most played survival game on Steam.

Players will soon be able to equip iconic Warhammer 40,000-themed cosmetic skins to their character, in their base, and with their crafted weapons, providing a unique but also fitting take on the hazmat and more items with a Death Korps of Krieg Pack - showcasing a perfect synergy of Rust’s dark brutality, and the Krieg’s unrelenting fanatical nature and aesthetic.

This crossover marks a first-of-its-kind partnership for Rust, blending the harsh, online sandbox-survival sensation that is Rust, with one of the most renowned sci-fi franchises in the world.
