Rust Server Status Checker

Enter the Rust server's IP address or hostname and click 'Check Server Status'. Our tool queries the server using the Steam query protocol and returns the current status, player count, map, and latency within seconds.

The status checker shows whether the server is online or offline, current player count vs maximum slots, server latency (ping in ms), the current map name, and the server name. This gives you a quick overview of the server's state before joining.

A Rust server might show as offline if it's currently restarting (e.g. after a wipe or update), the IP address is incorrect, the query port is blocked by a firewall, or the server has crashed. Rust servers also go offline briefly during forced wipes on the first Thursday of each month.

The default Rust game port is 28015, and the query port is typically the game port + 1 (28016). Our tool handles this automatically — just enter the game port or leave it at the default. If your server uses a custom port configuration, enter the query port directly.

You can check as often as you like. Results are cached for 30 seconds to avoid excessive queries to the server, so repeated checks within 30 seconds will show the cached result.
