RuneScape RuneFest 2026 Recap - The biggest news and what it was like on the ground

While many of you were probably spending your weekend doing whatever it is you do to de-stress after the week, I made my way to Birmingham. I know, terrifying. Fortunately, the reason that I was there was that I was visiting RuneFest 2026, hosted by Jagex to celebrate their massive MMORPG franchise, RuneScape.

By now you've probably already seen the big news from over the weekend, including the announcement of RuneScape Four, or the 4th Pillar, as the latest entry in the franchise and one that's still in very, very early development.

But there were far more big pieces of news that I think it's worth us going over again. 

Now, don't worry, this won't be an exhaustive list of everything from every single roadmap. But if you haven't had the chance to already look at them, then you can read through this to get a little sense of what's coming in late 2026 and 2027 for OSRS RuneScape and Dragonwilds.

Hoard of Dragons will see not just the introduction of Dragon Slayer II, following on from one of the most iconic RuneScape questlines, but also a full Agility Rework. And that’s one subject I found got quite the pop from the crowd, as the rework looks to turn agility into a real new means of getting around Gielinor.

But the most game-changing new piece of content will undoubtedly be RuneScape: Reignited - a new way to experience RuneScape as a new player, or jump in with newbie friends on a whole new character.
