Weekly wipe
Every Thursday · 19:00 London
Default weekly schedule. Your server may wipe on another day or at another time.
Monthly force wipe
First Thursday of the month · 19:00 London
Expected update time. Release delays and server restarts can move the actual wipe.

Rust wipes: questions and answers
When is the next Rust force wipe?
The monthly schedule is the first Thursday at 19:00 in Europe/London: 18:00 UTC in summer and 19:00 UTC in winter. The timer calculates the next scheduled date; it does not confirm that an update has been released.
Do all servers wipe every Thursday?
No. Thursday at 19:00 London is the default weekly timer configuration. Server owners can choose another day, hour or cycle. Check the server description or its announcements.
Does a map wipe also reset blueprints?
Not necessarily. Map resets and blueprint resets are separate. Blueprint rules depend on the server and the current Facepunch update; check both before planning a new wipe.
Does this timer apply to Rust Console Edition?
No. These countdowns follow the Rust PC schedule. Rust Console Edition has its own update and wipe calendar.
