As Old School nears its 8th birthday, it's more important than ever to ensure we're looking to the future.
Powercreep. Buffs. Nerfs. We've seen all your discussions, and we have a proposal that we think is key to the game's long-term health.

There's a lot of feedback for us to sink our teeth into following yesterday's Equipment Rebalance proposal.
As we head into the weekend, we wanted to ensure you know what we're working on. We'll have more next week with a revised blog and a beta world.
We've combed through your feedback following our Equipment Rebalance proposal.
With that in mind, we've got some updates to share on the main changes we've made.
π£ PSA π£
This week's game update (approximately an hour from now) will bring changes to the Catacombs of Mort'ton.
Anybody inside the Catacombs at the time of the game update will find themselves teleported to the entrance when they next log in!
Old School RuneScape is coming to Steam on February 24th, 2021!

With the recent beta worlds coming to an end and the conversations still ongoing, we'd like to update you on our plans for Equipment Rebalancing.

β Hi everyone, we're officially LIVE ON STEAM! β
We'll be showing off all the amazing Steam rewards you can get over on out Twitch Stream soon (tm).
Some users have reported they can't see a play now/download button. After review, this doesn't appear to be an issue with our backend. We're talking to Steam on a fix for this. In the meantime, I can confirm that steam://install/1343370 works as a workaround method for installing OSRS via steam.
EDIT: The Free to Play "Play Game" button should now be appearing.
If you are not seeing the button, please let us know.
Don't forget to leave a review for us on Steam as it is really appreciated. β€οΈ
π£ PSA: We've seen reports of players unable to login.
We are currently investigating the issue and hope to update you soon.
If you're already in-game then you should be able to continue playing as normal, though we would advise against changing worlds.
π£ Login Issue Update: We're hoping to bring our login servers back up within the hour.
Upon login, it's possible that some players may find they have lost up to 15 minutes of progress.
We're looking forward to getting you back in-game - sorry for the inconvenience, and we'd like to thank you for your patience.
π£ PSA: We're investigating renewed reports of login issues.
As earlier, we'd recommend avoiding dangerous activities, and world hopping until further notice.
We're sorry for the inconvenience, and we'll update you as soon as we have more to share.
Update: ETA to get login servers up again is 1-2 hours.
π£ Time for another update: We are still working to restore services as soon as possible - we are making good progress but we have no specific updates to report just yet.
RuneScape.com is now available, though please note we are still unable to update the News section at this time - until we can, please do check back here or on our social channels for further updates.
π£ Another update, hopefully the last one tonight: We are happy to report RuneScape login services are now coming back online and services should be restored for the vast majority of players.
Thanks you for your patience and understanding throughout this evening.
π£ PSA: You're likely to encounter some payment issues as a result of expected billing maintenance beginning at 14:00 GMT.
We expect the maintenance to last around an hour. No payments will be processed during this time.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
The planned billing maintenance is now complete, and you'll be able to make purchases as normal.
We'll continue to monitor both the login situation and the billing situation closely over the weekend.
We'd like to thank you for your patience and your continued support.
π£ PSA: We'll be taking the game offline at 11:00am GMT today for essential work related to recent login issues.
An hour countdown will begin at 10:00am GMT, giving you time for any last-minute gains before logging out.
The team expect the downtime to last around two hours.

@everyone
Hey @everyone . Before you react with a π‘, hear me out. We've made a brand new role, called <@&879726475010527252> for newsposts and streams that we'd like to notify you about. We'll be tagging this role for Game Update newsposts, as well as other cool announcements, streams and community-related stuff we might post here. It's not going to be spammy, but it will be more frequent.
You have this role by default. But if you DON'T want the ping/role, that's fine. Opt out through #set-roles-old. If you change your mind at a later date, you can opt back in again by toggling the button again.
Oh and for every π‘ emote this message gets, group ironman gets pushed back by a day. Just kidding. Or am I?
