Citing blood and violence, it receives an “M” rating.
An assessment of Rust’s console release appeared on the ESRB website.
The planned launch of Rust for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2020 was initially announced in November 2019, but last month we learned that the developer responsible for the port admitted it was silent simply because there were no significant updates.
While it is unclear when the console port will be available, the summary on the Entertainment Software Rating Board website confirms that the port will not come on the next generation PS5 and Xbox Series X / S systems, but is scheduled to arrive on Xbox One and PS4.
“This is a multiplayer survival game in first person in which players compete to survive in a hostile environment”, says the summary of the ESRB (thanks, Comic Book), which classifies the game as “M” for Adults.
“Players explore the open world environment, gather resources, create weapons (for example, spears, machine guns, explosives) and defend themselves from wild animals and other players. Players can attack and kill enemies in frantic combat, with successful attacks. resulting in large blood splatters. Players can continue to shoot animals or humans on the ground (ie, postmortem damage), accompanied by large blood spatter effects.
“Battles are enhanced by realistic shots and explosions. When human enemies are killed, they can be harvested as parts of the body and prepared for food.”
Developed by Facepunch and released in 2013, Rust performed well on Steam, with the number of players reaching a peak of simultaneous players of almost 250,000 in the past 24 hours alone. It is a game of complete anarchy and resource capture, with highly aggressive bears and equally aggressive players.
