This Week In RuneScape: SteelSeries & Prime Gaming

Lots of fun things this week, as we reveal the details of our partnership with SteelSeries, sip some fabulous RuneScape-inspired concoctions, and say hello to a new little friend in The Marketplace.


SteelSeries
Get yourself some goodies!

We've teamed up with SteelSeries, known throughout the land for their excellent gaming peripherals, to give away some extremely stylish in-game goodies!

Head to the SteelSeries website to get your hands on the magnificent Battleworn Steel Armour plus a Currency Pack filled with the shiny stuff.

Here's what to do:

  1. Log-in or register on the SteelSeries site.*
  2. Click 'Get Key'.
  3. Copy the key.
  4. Follow redemption instructions here on RuneScape.com.

*Promotion available from 17:00 Game Time, September 20th. Ironman accounts are ineligible.

It's that simple! We hope to see you all strutting around in your shiny new armour sets soon.


Prime Gaming
News on Prime Gaming drops.

Due to an unexpected issue, we've had to delay the next Prime Gaming drops until October 5th.

The previous drops (a Yak Track Care Package and a Currency Pack) remain available to claim until this new date. If you've already redeemed these items you will be unable to claim them again.

Head here to claim the current rewards.

We apologise for any confusion and inconvenience.


Elder God Wars Dungeon: Front Reveal
Something stirs in Senntisten...

Join us tomorrow, Tuesday September 21st at 16:00 Game Time to learn the first details of the next sinister front of the Elder God Wars Dungeon, including which Elder God we will be facing this time, and which tricks they might have in store. Featuring artwork by the talented Nina_Ray, you won't want to miss it!

Watch the reveal live on Twitch!


Desert Wyrm Pet
"Who's a terrifying little monster? You are! Yes you are!"

A not-so-cuddly creature has made its way to The Marketplace! Saul is a fearsome-looking wyrm pet, and he enjoys swooping through the skies of Gielinor, showing off those lovely shiny scales of his and scaring the living daylights out of passing sheep.



Click and drag the model to rotate and scroll to zoom in and out!


Saul costs 433 RuneCoins for free-to-play accounts, and 390 RuneCoins with the members' discount.

What are you waiting for? Go say hi!


Glacor Front Cold Drink Competition
Crack open a cold one - or five!

Back when we launched The Glacor Front, we asked you to show us your coolest cocktail (or mocktail!) concoctions by posting them on socials with the hashtag #ElderGodWars.

We've shaken, we've stirred, and we're ready to reveal our five winners - but first, let's take another look at the inspiration, cooked up by mixologist extraordinaire Sighaxen.

  

Mmm, delicious!
