RuneScape: Dragonwilds Early Access
At the time of writing this article, there is no confirmed start date for the RuneScape: Dragonwilds early access . If you look at the landing page for the game on Steam, you’ll be celebrated with the message “game coming soon to early access.” But why early access? The developers have repeatedly stated that RuneScape is a community-driven game, and the players should be at the heart of the development process whenever a new title is on the horizon.
Therefore, when the game does release, it’ll be a work in progress, meaning the game will not be near completion, but the developers will take the feedback from the players and act accordingly based on said feedback. Here’s a little snippet from the developers via Steam:
“We’re committed to making RuneScape: Dragonwilds a community-driven game that players want to come back to again and again. The best way to make a game we know fans will love, is to make it with them! We’re bringing players along for the journey. RuneScape games have always been better for community voice being at it’s heart, and we’re taking that same mindset in listening to the community from day one. We’re very excited to see where our community collaboration can take us in the months coming and years with RuneScape: Dragonwilds!”
According to the developers themselves, they expect the game to leave early access by early 2026 while also ensuring the game is in the best spot possible before release. No one wants an incomplete game.
