Alkad Rust — Servers, Client, and Software

What Is Alkad

Alkad is one of the most popular pirate projects for Rust. It has its own client, its own servers, its own player base. The launcher downloads from alkad.org, installs in a couple of minutes, and doesn't need Steam. Evening player counts on the main servers reach several hundred.

Alkad servers run without EAC. They use server-side protection plugins instead, which are weaker than Facepunch's anti-cheat. Updates roll out with a delay after official patches — from a few hours to a couple of days.

Alkad Servers — Rates and Player Counts

The project has several servers with different rates: from x1 vanilla to modded x5-x10. The main server (Main) is usually the most populated. There are PvP arenas for aim practice and servers with custom plugins.

Server IPs are listed in the Alkad launcher — no need to search separately. Connection is automatic: pick a server from the list, hit "Play", and wait for it to load.

Cheats for Alkad — What Works

Standard cheats built for licensed Rust won't launch on Alkad — the injection method isn't compatible with the cracked client. You need versions compiled specifically for this project.

The catalog has three products for Alkad: Phoenix Full (ESP + Chams + spoofer), Phoenix ESP (visual only), and a separate build with pSilent Aim for Alkad and Rusticaland. Aimbot, wallhack, resource highlights — same features as licensed versions, but adapted for the pirate client.

Prices are lower than for licensed software — no need to bypass EAC, simpler development. If you're not sure which client you have — message support before buying to confirm compatibility.
