Scorned Wilderness, Regicide, and Kuldra
Regicide leads into Scorned Wilderness. The region has two important zones: The Hub, where players can build, and the Raid area, where building is disabled. The Raid culminates in Kuldra, the God-Eater, and is intended for solo players or groups.
The live enemy roster includes Goblin Thugs, Goblin Poisonshot Archers, Garou Exiles, Garou Lightning Berserkers, Rotsworn Reanimators, Skeletal Blightshots, Black Knight Crusaders, Blazing Black Knights, Stormpact Demons, and Black Dragons.
New equipment and resources
The core style progression extends to Rune armour and weapons, Black Dragonhide and Magic bows, and Ancestral Magic equipment. Wands join Staves as a Magic weapon type. The named Dragon reward pool includes armour pieces, a shield, Dragon Scimitar, and Dragon Crossbow; a successful Kuldra kill guarantees the Dragon Kiteshield and then a cape according to Jagex's launch notes.
Runite and Luminite both require an Adamant Pickaxe or better. Magic Wood requires a Rune Logging Axe or better. The Resource Finder records every officially named production station without guessing material quantities.
Combat and skill trees
Weapon specials now spend a rechargeable Special Attack bar rather than depending mainly on stamina. A successful parry restores 50% of maximum stamina and can open an optional Visceral Attack. Attacks, gathering actions, and spell casts can be cancelled by blocking or dodging.
Seven skill trees received important abilities or movements. Highlights include Sprint Attacks, Enchant Weapon: Water, Runic Refund, Enfeeble, Vengeance, Divine Rock, an improved Axtral Projection, Storage Ledger, Overdrive, and Home Teleport.
Platforms, crossplay, and subscriptions
Version 1.0 is live on Steam, Epic Games Store, Jagex Launcher, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. Crossplay can be enabled whenever a multiplayer world is hosted; dedicated servers have the option too. Friends can enter a code in the world browser, while hosts find that code in the pause menu.
The game launched through Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium. Jagex kept the standard price at £24.99 / $29.99. Platform purchases and saves are not automatically interchangeable, although players can use their existing character when joining a crossplay world from its original platform.
After version 1.0
Dragonwilds remains in active development. Magic Tree Seeds and another LOD improvement are targeted for 1.0.1, while the free Luminance content update is planned for winter. Jagex has previously connected Prayer with that winter phase, but detailed mechanics are not confirmed. Fuller 2027 plans will follow later.
