The next Rust Console Update arrives today and will be available to download just before the regular PS4 and Xbox One Server Wipe time.
This means that gamers waiting to try out the new content will be able to download it before the monthly wipe completes, and jump straight back into the game.
The release of the Deadly Catch update also marks the one-year anniversary of Rust Console Edition.
This latest patch has been through testing on the public branch and is now ready to launch on PS4 and Xbox One for everyone to experience.
Rust Console Update And Deadly Catch Patch Notes
As mentioned above, today’s Rust Console Update is rolling out before the monthly server wipe, with new content going live across PlayStation and Xbox platforms. Developers Double Eleven has stated that the new Deadly Catch patch is focused on adding new content to the game, including new items to craft and use.
Much of this is based around water, with Kayaks, Fishing, and Fishing Villages being added to the game on May 26. The team has also confirmed that a new Thompson Rifle skin is coming to Rust Console Edition that everyone will be able to claim for free, but won’t be available to claim straight after this patch has gone live. A rundown on all the new features can be found below and includes the following items:
Fishing Villages – The Fishing Villages are the new monuments added with Deadly Catch, and two variants will be present in the map (small and big). They are safe zones, just like The Outpost or The Bandit Camp, so no fighting inside it or the turrets will get you.
Inside the Fishing Villages players will encounter traders selling Blueprints for the Kayak, Paddle, and Handmade Fishing Rod. They also sell diving gear and boats. And like we mentioned before, there’s also a vending machine where you will be able to sell all your fish!
Fishing – This new mini-game allows you to catch a great variety of fish depending on where you are and the type of bait you are using. Rivers, lakes and ocean shores will all provide different fish, and some of them can only be obtained with the right bait. Find the bait to help with your fishing needs from hemp, pumpkins and corn plants.
Kayaks – Kayaks will be super useful to help you get to the Oil Rigs without the need for low grade fuel or splashing out the scrap for a better boat. For a “small” cost, you can buy the Blueprint for the Kayak and the Paddle (which can also be used as a weapon) in one of the traders inside the Fishing Villages or if you are lucky, you can find a kayak inside one of the many containers around the map. The Kayak is also a great vehicle to travel to the open sea for some exciting fishing sessions.
