Dark Horse Books and Facepunch Studios have teamed for The Art of Rust, giving fans of the video game a look behind the scenes.
The Art of Rust illuminates the development and concept art behind Rust—a game where everything wants you to die. The wildlife, inhabitants and environment of an island are all poised to kill you, and then there’s other survivors out to claim what’s yours for themselves! Through this detailed and rich review of costume design, character sketches, and more, fans can experience more of the harsh environments of the game and dive into how their improvised weapons, base props, and vehicles have come to life.
The Art of Rust is expected to arrive in stores on September 9, 2025, with a cover price of $54.99 for the 184-page hardcover.
