Against the overbearing weight of modernity, Old School RuneScape continues to complete a Sisyphean task of simply existing two and a half decades after it originally launched. It just celebrated that 25th anniversary at the start of the year in fact, and now during a Winter Summit a slew of updates coming to the MMO were shown off in a roadmap from developer Jagex.
Kicking things off on the roadmap is Deadman: Annihilation, a “high intensity, PvP everywhere” variation on its main PvP mode that’ll run from January 30th through to February 21st. This one’ll feature some new sigils and breaches, and you can earn points to pick up cosmetics. Following that, in April Leagues is returning with Leagues VI: Demonic Pacts, complete with bonus XP drops and loot boosts, alongside some reimagined combat masteries.
Sailing, the game’s first new skill since it changed from regular RuneScape to Old School RuneScape, will be expanded upon sometime in 2026 too, namely new quests to do. Those of you that have been around for a long time will be interested to hear about the Blood Moon Rises update coming in the summer, a Grandmaster-tier quest that’ll wrap up a story started all the way back in 2004. Jeepers creepers! Pull out the champagne for that questline. On top of all that, there’s also The Fractured Archive, the game’s first new raid in four years.
As always I’m just impressed this thing is trucking. It’s the first online anything where I had an actual username (no I’m not telling you, some things are best kept as secrets), those types of internet histories are typically lost to time. Kudos!
