One of the hallmarks of a popular video game is the number of potential players asking for the game to be released for the platform they are more conversant with. Rust is no exception to this, as the game was initially released for macOS and Microsoft Windows, then later expanded to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Also, many Nintendo Switch users have been clamoring for the game to be released for Switch. So, will Facepunch Studios take the request of millions of Switch users into consideration by releasing the survival game for Nintendo Switch? Let’s discuss Rust Nintendo Switch release date and other relevant details about that in the course of this article. Before we jump into that, a little background overview of the game will help put things in context.
Rust is a survival video game jointly developed by Facepunch Studios and Double Eleven. The game was published by Facepunch Studios and is currently available for macOS, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The major objective in the game is to survive the wilderness with materials looted or gathered in the game while managing thirst, health, hunger, exposure to the elements, and other basics required for human survival. Looking at the consoles the game has been released for, it is glaring that the only popular console that is not listed is the Nintendo Switch. This makes the question of the game being released for Nintendo Switch even more captivating. Let’s discuss that right away.
Rust Nintendo Switch Release Date: When It Will Be Available
Remember the game was initially released for PC, and then Facepunch Studios announced they will be releasing the game for consoles. Unfortunately, the consoles they had in mind were the PS4 and Xbox One consoles, all while clearly ignoring the Nintendo Switch console. Nintendo Switch has a major share of users in the gaming market, so a release of the game for the console will be of advantage to both developers and publishers of the game. Although nothing official has been explicitly announced about making the game available on Switch, it should also be noted that this goes both ways, as it implies that currently, the publishers have no intention of porting the game to the said console. So, keep your fingers crossed as we promise to update you on this the moment an official announcement is made regarding the same.
