RuneScape: Dragonwilds Leaves Early Access on September 15 — Jagex's Survival-Crafting Hit Hits 1.0 Across PS5, Xbox and PC, Bringing RuneScape to PlayStation for the First Time in 25 Years

Jagex used Summer Game Fest to confirm that survival-crafting breakout RuneScape: Dragonwilds leaves Early Access with a full 1.0 launch on September 15, 2026, simultaneously across PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC — the first RuneScape game on PlayStation in 25 years.

Jagex brought a milestone to Summer Game Fest: RuneScape: Dragonwilds, the survival-crafting breakout, will leave Early Access and hit its full 1.0 launch on September 15, 2026 — and it's doing so simultaneously across PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.

Dragonwilds is an open-world, co-op crafting and survival game and the first standalone title to spin out of Jagex's iconic medieval MMORPG. Its Early Access run has been a genuine success story, surpassing one million sales as players chopped, built and battled their way across its dragon-haunted wilds.

A loaded 1.0

The full launch isn't just a label change. Version 1.0 bundles the brand-new Scorned Wilderness update alongside all of the content from the upcoming Umbral Sands expansion, giving newcomers a meatier package and rewarding Early Access veterans with a fresh frontier to tame.

RuneScape comes to PlayStation

Most striking is the console news: following its reveal during Sony's State of Play, Dragonwilds marks the first RuneScape game on PlayStation in 25 years, and it'll be available on PlayStation Plus. Launching day-and-date on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, it's a major moment for one of 2026's surprise hits.
