NC's own store page gives 5 October 2026 as the release date, lists the game as free to play, and says PC only, on Unreal Engine 5. It names no launch regions and no second platform, read 2026-09-13, so neither is carried here.

September's Month Ahead post of 3 September 2026 calls RuneFest the biggest in-person RuneScape event of the year and says it will take place on October 3 and 4. The post names no venue and no ticket detail.

Jagex's 3 September announcement says players can tune into its Summit at Runefest on October 3rd to hear about 2027 and the next Saga in Ashenfall's story. The post dates the Summit and no other Runefest day, so this row is the Summit rather than the convention around it.

Jagex's celebration of the 1.0 launch. It starts at 9am Pacific, noon Eastern, 5pm in Britain and 6pm in central Europe, and runs on the official RuneScape: Dragonwilds Twitch channel. Thirty-two streamers get six hours to take a brand new character all the way to beating Velgar, the first dragon boss in the game. Every hour the world shifts its rules, so attacks might start hurting teammates or magic might lose its cooldowns.

ArenaNet's post of 8 September 2026 says the final chapter of Visions of Eternity, called Code of Creation, drops 15 September and sends players into the depths of Castora across six story chapters. This row showed an end-of-September estimate until that post named the day.

The last scheduled unlock of Midnight Season 2. Blizzard names the week of 8 September rather than a day, so the range is the week.

The post dates a voluntary open beta on Windows to Monday 7 September and calls it the first step of a staggered rollout, with Android next and OSX/iOS after it, neither dated. It is signed by the RuneTek team and names no studio. Vulkan is switched on from the Graphics Mode setting in the startup options menu; OpenGL stays as the fallback renderer once Vulkan becomes the default.
