| Wednesday July 8th, 2026 | 14:10am UTC | We’re aware that today’s changes to the Crimson kisten have affected its available attack styles. If you use the Crimson kisten, please check your selected attack style before entering combat, as you may gain unwanted XP in a skill you did not intend to train. We’ve deployed a hotfix to add a warning message for players using the weapon, and for anyone affected by unintended XP prior to this, we’ll look to remove the unwanted XP. | ~30 minutes | Hotfixed. |
From today, Wednesday June 24th, Old School RuneScape will no longer be available on devices running 32 bit versions of the Android operating system, as client version 239 and onwards do not support 32 bit Android. Therefore, existing installs on these devices will no longer be able to update or access the game.

Since February both RuneScape and Old School RuneScape have been running an additional maintenance on Tuesdays as part of our ongoing work to improve the infrastructure and core experience of our games, these maintenance will continue but we are adding in an additional small step.
Alongside taking down the worlds for 20-30 mins for this maintenance we will be keeping a handful of worlds offline for an additional 30 mins.
This should have minimal impact on regular playing as you will still be able to access a plethora of worlds once the maintenance is complete but you may notice a few worlds missing from the world list.
In this post you'll be able to find live game status updates and other key information regarding Old School RuneScape.
This page will be used to share information on:- Planned downtime
