Sailing Alpha

Available for Old School RuneScape members on PC to try until March 27th, players can jump into the Sailing playtest, which is packed with exciting high seas adventure. Start off on a teeny tiny raft and improve your skill as a sailor until you eventually become an experienced captain, commanding your crew on a bigger vessel and traversing the most hazardous of waters. Dive with mermaids, chase ducks, and explore the far reaches of the ocean on a journey that's only ever been seen from land.

Discover The Pandemonium, a new island that acts as a homely port between adventures, and learn how to sail and dock your boat in an introductory quest. Salvage treasures from lost shipwrecks, take on courier tasks and combine deliveries with other maritime activities as you set sail across the seas, earning XP and charting your Sailing adventure. Avoid storms, customize your ship, and improve your skills to become an experienced captain, complete with a sea-hardy crew fit for facing the hazards of the open water.

Old School RuneScape

Old School RuneScape is the industry-defining collaboration between the community and developers. Embracing its nostalgic heritage, hundreds of thousands of active players control the direction of the game with an in-game polling system. Featuring adventures for solo play through to 100-player strong raids, Old School RuneScape caters for every brave adventurer. Old School RuneScape continues to innovate, introducing its first-ever new skill in 2023 to commemorate its 10th anniversary, arriving later this year.
