Community Discussions & February Marketplace Drop

Alongside the removal of Treasure Hunter a few weeks ago, we also launched an updated Marketplace, where you can purchase outfits, pets, animations, and more using RuneCoins.

We’ll be iterating on this system throughout the year, with the current plan to refresh the stock monthly, introducing brand-new items and rotating in previously available favourites. To help keep the marketplace feeling fresh, we will occasionally remove some items, generally these will be items that aren't actively being purchased, the intent isn't to remove these items indefinitely but just to rotate in some new faces.

Today we will be updating the available stock with the following items.

*These items will be available until March 8th.

And the following items will be removed from sale.

• Saul pet
• Saradomin armour bundle
• Zamorak armour bundle

Just a quick reminder that we plan to have a short maintenance tomorrow February 10th at 9am UTC which should last for approximately 20 minutes. This is part of our ongoing work to improve the infrastructure and core experience of our games, if you would like to know more please check out the previous post.

General

• Added functionality to allow players with remaining shards from the inverted skillcapes event to exchange them with Hans between the 9th and 15th of February.

• Fixed a bug that prevented the bottom four quests in Timeline->World Guardian sort from appearing.
• Added "Follows events of: The World Wakes" to "The Death of Chivalry" quest.

The PvP Showdown returns!

Yes, we are back! In 2025 we hosted the PvP Showdown event, and you guys really enjoyed it. Since then, we’ve been working hard on improvements and incorporating feedback from our community to make this event even better.

What is PvP Showdown?

PvP Showdown is the most intense and thrilling (safe deaths) PvP event of the year, where only the best and most strategic players will survive. Get ready to test your combat skills, starting with Deathmatch, where you’ll battle other players for a spot among the top 8. Those players will advance to bracket-style knockout rounds in the Clan Wars purple portal.

Rewards, We’re also bringing back the RuneScape Discord titles for one month. The Ultimate PKer title will be awarded to first place, while second and third place will receive the Master PKer title. Both titles feature a unique color and the PK-skull icon. In addition, each winner will rewarded with a bond.

How do I join?

There’s no sign-up required this year. Just show up at 15:45 Game Time in the Deathmatch lobby W76 on February 12th, or watch us live on the Official RuneScape Twitch Channel at 17:00 Game Time.
