Facepunch Studios has kicked off a new community event that rewards viewers with two distinct items: a custom L96 rifle skin and the "Burnt Peanuts Fire Roasted" sleeping bag. For survivors who spend most of their time looking through a high-powered scope or respawning in a cold base, these free additions are a welcome way to customize a loadout without hitting the general store.
The event is scheduled to run from April 16th at 11 PM BST / 6 PM EDT through April 27th. To claim these rewards, you'll need to ensure your Twitch and Steam accounts are properly synced via the official Rust Twitch Drops page. Once linked, progress is tracked simply by watching participating streamers who have the "Drops Enabled" tag.
The L96 skin is particularly noteworthy as high-tier weapon skins are often the most sought-after drops in the community. Meanwhile, the burnt peanut-themed sleeping bag adds a bit of dark humor to your base's interior. Given the limited window, players should jump in early to ensure they hit the required watch-time milestones before the April 27th deadline. It's an easy win for anyone already planning to watch some high-stakes raids or base-building content this week.
