The September update of Rust is live and now offers an official Hardcore game mode. What the Hardcore mode brings with it and what other changes the September update of Rust contains, we show you now.

Why the Hardcore mode? After the Softcore mode was released by the Rust developers last year, the developers also wanted to give their experienced players a mode. From now on there is the Hardcore Mode in which players can compete with other survivors.
