Is RS4 Out?
Is RS4 out? No. Nobody outside Jagex can play the new RuneScape MMO yet. It was revealed at RuneFest 2026 as an early project that is still a few years away, and no release date, beta or public playtest has been announced so far.
What Jagex said
"…we are still right at the beginning of a hugely ambitious project and the game is still a few years away."
"…that means bringing you into the development journey earlier than you might expect - sharing ideas, testing things, listening and learning as we go."
What it means
RS4 is not playable, and there is no public build. Jagex revealed it early on purpose, to involve players during development, but it has not said when or how that involvement starts.
What to watch next
Watch for Jagex explaining how players can get involved; it has promised that for 2027. The Register interest form on the official RS4 page is the official way to hear first.
