Game Updates
This Week In RuneScape - 10/08/20

We’re on a post-Desperate Measures cooldown this week, focusing our energy on making changes and fixes across the game world. Check out the Patch Notes tab for all the details!

This week we've got not one, but two new things to show off! Let's see what's new this week, shall we?


New Items Reveal

This Tuesday at 16.00 Game Time our J-Mods will be revealing exciting and powerful new items live on the official RuneScape Twitch channel ahead of their implementation in a future update. You won't want to miss it!


Time to Train

Lastly, we've added a new reward to Time to Train. The Portable Workbench will allow you to get out into the sunshine and train Construction outside of your Player Owned House. Thrilling!
