RuneScape: Dragonwilds has landed in Early Access on Steam, and it’s not the RuneScape you remember. Set on the mysterious continent of Ashenfall, this standalone spin-off throws players into a high-stakes, co-op survival adventure where dragons rule and the only way to survive is to gather, build, and fight back.
Up to four players can team up to confront the Dragon Queen, explore handcrafted landscapes, and uncover secrets buried in ancient ruins. The world is shaped by “Anima,” a magical force that lets players conjure tools, craft gear, and unleash spells—essential for surviving the relentless dragon threat. Expect a blend of classic RuneScape questing, skill progression, and light RPG elements, all wrapped in a survival-crafting package reminiscent of hits like Valheim.
Jagex promises regular updates throughout Early Access, with new regions, quests, and gear on the horizon. Community feedback will directly influence the game’s evolution, making Dragonwilds a living project shaped by its players.
For now, Dragonwilds is exclusive to PC, but reports hint at possible console releases in. Whether you’re a RuneScape veteran or a newcomer, Ashenfall’s wilds offer danger, mystery, and the ultimate dragon-slaying challenge.
