WEEKLY PLAYTIMES
Rezarus is in Early Access with a growing player community. To keep matches firing up consistently, playtimes are scheduled throughout the week — these are the windows when organized PvP sessions are most likely to happen. Outside of these times, spontaneous matches can still form on their own. If you're looking for active arenas, peak player counts, or ideal times to hop on, this information below will help you plan your play sessions.
WEEKLY SCHEDULE
Impulse Wars
A physics-based PvP mode where impulse and scorpion missiles send enemy tanks flying off ramps and ledges to their deaths. A solid starting point for new players — the mechanics focus on positioning and aim, without the added complexity of team coordination. Learn more about Impulse Wars →
Phoenix Wars
A fast-paced missile-only mode with flying tanks and 2-hit kills. It builds on the ground-based mechanics of Impulse Wars by adding aerial movement — a natural next step once you're comfortable with aiming and positioning. Learn more about Phoenix Wars →
Laser Wars
A team-focused mode where laser weapons and shield mechanics reward accuracy and coordination over raw aggression. Worth jumping into once you're comfortable with the basics — or right away if team play is more your style. Learn more about Laser Wars →
OUTSIDE SCHEDULED TIMES
Matches can and do start outside of scheduled windows — particularly during evenings Eastern Time. The best way to catch these is to watch the Discord Live Action channel, where players call out when a session is forming.
Total Wars CTF does not have a fixed playtime — matches for that mode start whenever players coordinate through Discord.
Veterans are welcoming to new players, and with a smaller community right now it's one of the better times to jump in and easier to get comfortable before the lobbies get bigger.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When is the best time to play Rezarus?
The best time is during a scheduled playtime: Impulse Wars on Saturdays at 8PM EST, Phoenix Wars on Wednesdays at 7PM EST, and Laser Wars on Thursdays at 9PM EST. Outside of these windows, spontaneous matches can still form — most often during evenings Eastern Time.
What if I miss a scheduled playtime?
Check the Discord Live Action channel — players often coordinate matches outside of scheduled times. Spontaneous sessions happen most frequently during evenings Eastern Time.
Are playtimes the same every week?
Yes, scheduled playtimes repeat each week on the same day and time. Follow the Rezarus Discord for any temporary schedule changes or special event sessions.
Does Total Wars CTF have a scheduled playtime?
Since Total Wars CTF is still a work-in-progress with bugs to fix and content to add, it does not currently have a fixed scheduled playtime. Matches can start any time players coordinate through the Discord server.
What is the current Rezarus player count?
During scheduled playtimes, sessions typically see 10–20 players online. Outside of those windows, smaller matches of 4–10 players still form — most often during evenings Eastern Time.
Are matches fun with a small player base?
Modes like Impulse Wars and Phoenix Wars are built to be competitive and fun with as few as 3–4 players. Laser Wars hits its stride with 6–8 in the arena. Either way, the current player count is an advantage — it's a great time to sharpen your skills and, more importantly, make your voice heard on Rezarus development before the community grows too large to devote much attention and resource to individual feedback.
