RuneScape: Dragonwilds is Jagex's standalone open-world survival RPG set in the RuneScape universe.

You land on the forgotten continent of Ashenfall, where dragons have taken over and wild magic is basically breaking reality. You gather resources, build a base, level RuneScape-style skills, craft gear, do quests, explore new regions and eventually work your way up to fighting the Dragon Queen.

Playable solo or in co-op with up to 4 players.

Think Valheim / Enshrouded-style survival, but with RuneScape skills, lore, enemies, music and a much bigger emphasis on magic.

It feels very RuneScape without just being "RuneScape but with prettier graphics."

The game also pulls in classic RuneScape creatures and factions, including Zogres and Black Knights, alongside new enemies made for Dragonwilds.

Dragonwilds originally launched in Early Access in April 2025 and hit 1.0 on September 15, 2026.
1.0 finishes the Kuldra saga and launched across PC and consoles with crossplay. Jagex has also said 1.0 isn't the end of the game, more regions, skills, quests, bosses, enemies and story content are planned after launch.

Price is $29.99 for the standard edition.

Anybody playing?

I skipped most of the Early Access period but 1.0 looks way more fleshed out than I expected. The RuneScape skill system + survival formula actually seems like a really natural fit.

i played day one on early access thought it was cool but underbaked really excited to try 1.0

and gamepass means my friends will play

Feedback has been really positive.

Can’t decide between this, valheim, or dune awakening

valheim lowkey mid af

Dam I thought it was supposed to be the best in the genre or something

i have bad opinions to be fair

i really didn’t like the game though i tried so many times to enjoy it

Dune awakening been fun. Didnt try this or valheim yet.

You do have some wild takes bro I can’t lie
