Double XP Continues! - This Week In RuneScape

There are only seven days left to use up your 48 Hours of Double XP - but if you won't be using it all, don't forget you can also trade one hour of Double XP time every day for credits to use with Nic the Trader!

Need to know more? Head here!

In case you missed it, the 300 Million Account Party is well underway! As you skill throughout the game, look out for Balloon Fragments - every 200 you return to Party Pete earns you a Balloon.

The Balloons are packed with event-exclusive rewards as well as some blast-from-the-past cosmetics, including Platinum God Wars Dungeon Armour Cosmetics and the chance to find 300Million GP!

For more details, head here.

Our latest Prime Gaming drop arrives tomorrow!

This month your Prime Gaming benefits will net you a new cosmetic and five Knowledge Bombs that each boost your XP by 1.5x for 1 hour! Just remember to use them AFTER Double XP LIVE, as they won't stack with the current event.

• Umbral Traveller's Outfit (Cosmetic)
• 5 Knowledge Bombs

Prime Members can grab their goodies from August 16th! Find out more at Prime Gaming Rewards page.

Requirements Changes

In the coming months, RuneScape will no longer support Windows 32-bit builds or graphics cards that do not support OpenGL 3.0 or higher. This change allows us to focus our technical development and testing resources on more commonly-used platforms.
