Rust Console Edition Mic Not Detected

Hi Tighespy, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

I apologize but the game does not have an upgrade option and since you have also mentioned that the game was purchased more than 14 days ago that will be the only option to re-purchase the higher game version.

Hi there NorthIron76, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

I regret to inform you that Rust Console Edition, purchased through the Xbox platform, will only work on an Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S console. As the name suggests, it is designed specifically for consoles.

Additionally, the game is also not part of Xbox Play Anywhere (which allows games purchased from the Xbox console to be run on PC with the same purchase):

You can check the devices on which the game is playable if purchased through the following link in the section that says 'Playable on':

If you wish to play it on a PC, you will need to purchase the game from a different platform, such as Steam, for example.

I appreciate your understanding and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

I appreciate your response and that is very unfortunate. I find it increasingly frustrating everyday as when I bought the game and even still to day i have not had the experience promised. With connection issues and just an overall unplayable game it's very disappointing that there is not at least an option to upgrade to test features and that I need to pay another sum of money for a game I already own. I wouldn't recommend purchasing in its current state but that's just my experience.

I totally understand where you're coming from and I really apologize. I hope there is more that I can do but I have also checked all possible options but that's what we can only do.

Hello @lorrainemissin!

If you are facing game crash issues, we'd recommend checking Troubleshoot game issues on Xbox | Xbox Support article for some solutions. However, if the issue persists, and you are still having this issue only with this game, it would be best to contact the game developer for further assistance.
