Old School RuneScape is a retro game version of RuneScape from 2007 which we returned at the community's request. The community controls the developmental direction of Old School RuneScape by voting on which updates it would like to receive.
The world's largest and most popular MMORPG, Old School RuneScape has been played by over 260 million players since the 2001 release of RuneScape. Old School RuneScape unites the intricate mechanics of modern MMOs with the nostalgic point-and-click gameplay of early role-playing games.

It's not mentioned here, but adding night and day cycles would be amazing too.
It should be on a specific world only. Or having the ability to toggle it on and off
Yeah this would take it to new extremes but yet toggle option for sure.
Yeeeeees a day and noght cycle is just what we need
@@apompel4894 yeah definitely not permanent, just toggle on/off setting
@@apompel4894why? Just make it on for everyone but make it toggleable. You don’t need a special world for it snowflake 😂
I love how proud he looks and that Jagex is still giving us room to make our own decisions.
this is what we wanted rs3 to look like
Sad but true, but thank God we got OSRS.@@fredmanM
Not for long, Jagex is about to be bought out… bye bye good updates hello microtransactions in osrs
@@francophysique5192 doesn't matter and depends on the community output. these investment companies invest to make the game more expensive and resell it was expected with the current parent. this one does the same and will try to flip it and sell it again to another company. so as long as the community is heavy and bands with jagex it will remain the players choice mostly on updates. sure a company can add micro transactions but these companies really do not want to risk huge media going after it as its evil otherwise itll ruin business reputation.
Jagex just got bought for 900 million and RS3 doesn't have that ability to generate income for them anymore. RS3 has been milked for 10 YEARS STRAIGHT.
Microtransactions are coming for OSRS.
The sky in RS, with clouds?! Who would've thought that the day would come?!
Just wait until OSRS VR
@@pillzbeatz1037 there is a mod like that for a vr game like that already too :D
for reeeaaal
Honestly, I was against this idea after the attempted shutdown of 117hd, but with the recent acceptance and support for the plugin, I believe the team really has started to take notes. And it shows, this looks fantastic, and I'm very excited for the future. Keep it up!
That whole event was pretty spectacular. People were canceling memberships left and right and the higher ups finally gave in before the day was done =)
Yep, whatever happens with OSRS HD/Official HD, we have 117HD to thank for it.
It lit a fire under Jagex’s buttcheeks that otherwise would have gone unlit.
There was massive support from the beginning for 117hd. Not sure what you're talking about.
@@FriginHavoc Jagex sent a cease and desist a few days before the release and got it shut down actually. It wasn't until public outcry and some jmod support that 117HD could release.
@@xPikshade not surprised, its a corporation and all they see is money.
Legend speaks of a mmo that has stood the test of time for 20 plus years ....this is the story of RuneScape.
Hasn't really stood the test of time since RuneScape isn't even the base game remind of why there is two separate games???
@@MrModaffwould you say wow hasn't stood the test of time because there's classic? Rs3 is much smaller but still accounts for the majority of their revenue which keeps predatory mtx out of osrs
@MrModaff what would you consider the base game then? classic? rs2? with that logic rs3 isn't even the base game.
@@shanedonnally6276 RS 3 is the base game
@@incongruous4 Trying to compare the two isn't really viable seeing as they were made for two very different reasons.
A pseudo day/night would be pretty cool, with the sun slowly changing angle / intensity on a timer
I would like that, but only if it was a very subtle change. Like minor color differences and obviously a bit more intense shadows on things, but I hope it doesn't actually reduce visibility or make general activities more irritating
Thank you as a mobile only player this is huge!!
bro.. can i just ask why?
I play mainly on mobile as well! This is awesome!
@@blestbreadwhy couldn't a phone handle it?
Battery gonna drain faster lol
@@blestbread damn, didnt know you know them? Are you mates or something?
This is fantastic news, and very good to see the OldSchool original graphics still being an option. An important part of the game many people love
Yeah I’m switching asap
yeah especially for those of us that play on cheap tablets 🤣
Thank God it's optional.
I was pretty cynical about the official OSRS HD project but after seeing the water/skybox upgrades I'm onboard. Pairing them with sailing is brilliant and I'd love to see the tech grow into a dynamic weather system. I'm excited to see what else Mod West and his team accomplish
dynamic weather would be suuuper cool
how can one be cynical regarding a graphical toggle-able option? its not like its changing the fundamental mechanics and gameplay of the game 😭
@@Jackson-sr4fk I don't doubt the competency of anyone at Jagex or the risk of it ruining the game. I was concerned from the old drama of executives treating the HD Runelite plug with hostility. I feared a project like this only got greenlit to "compete" with them and/or wouldn't get the resources it'd need. But after the showcase, I can see this is being made with effort and good intentions. With that and the lack of recent runelite drama, I'm happy to forfeit my negativity
omg imagine rain in osrs beautiful
Good stuff. So that brand new 3090 I got for my PC a year ago to only play osrs on wasn’t a waste!
Play HDOS in the meantime
I think this will help a ton to attract new players.
You're correct. I always wanted to play OSRS as that was my childhood but the graphics on my expensive PC made me stick to RS3 until I got bored of it.
I'm an old player and for me this might be what makes me join again.
That's good to hear. I used to play OSRS a lot but got burnt out a few years ago. I'm hoping the HD update will revive my interest in it again lol, as that was always one of my most anticipated features/updates.@@kingofracism
@@Aj747the 117 Runelite plugin is beautiful. I have a weaker PC (1070 GPU) and it runs at a high FPS at max everything
Why people love OSRS and not RS3?
Looks great! You all walk the delicate thin line of visual appeal and I think you've done a tremendous job. Thanks!
This is update I've been waiting for. I love coming back to an old game with a fresh coat of paint.
This appears to be Runescape 3's version of RuneTek being ported to OSRS, meaning OSRS will get graphics features from RS3, like shadows, global illumination, volumetric fog, skyboxes, etc. However, the game will retain OSRS's usual models and textures, so the visual style will remain the same. It also should run much better on your PC because of the fact that it's using a modern graphics engine now that can actually take advantage of your hardware, just like HDOS does.
117 and HDOS aren't going anywhere. This is simply so they can offer their own in-house HD mode on their own PC client and on mobile. That's also why they're doing their own plugin API - so their own client, and especially mobile, get a robust plugin system.
These are both great additions and I'm super excited.
Lol
the new graphics look absolutely badass - well done!
new???? LOL

Very underrated development studio and dedicated to their community and ACTUALLY listening to their player base. If you havent gotten into this game you should honestly if you love an MMO. I know its very basic but when you dig deeper into the game the skill gap is huge in PvM and PvP
No one asked for this and it isn't needed considering there's countless plugins that do this. It's just wasted dev time to appeal to fortnite mickey mouse players.
@@amp4105 plenty of players want this
@@amp4105 Implying a single plugin that alters textures is anywhere near the scope of an entire engine overhaul.
Lol thicko. Its a complete engine overhaul noob. Get good @@amp4105
@@WesternEugenics117 literally looks better than this 😂
So glad a developer got to give this demo. Fantastic.
The HD RS2.5 is where I have my most fun memories of runescape from.
Look into HDOS
Try HDOS, I play on it currently and it hits that 2009 era perfectly! It also has tons of runelite plugins.
This isnt the 2008 RSHD youre thinking of... No its just HD rendering of the same square shit we already have.
@@metalstick7796 facts we need that version of HD back
@@metalstick7796 because this isn't supposed to be 2008, it's 2007 with a fresh look.
Love the look of this. I remember rushing home from school play the game when the original HD update happened way back in 2008. For me, *that* is my most memorable era of RS2.
You can play with those graphics again. There’s a Jagex approved 3pc called HDOS and it has 09-2011 graphics :)
When is the update coming to osrs for us to play and try out
I’ve been playing the game on and off since 2008 and this definitely makes me want to return again! Fantastic work!
I'd love to have this plus the HDOS models
I am extremely excited about this! And the sailing update!
I hope we get to see this released soon. Thank you for continuing to put so much work and love into this game.
I only played old school from 2013-early 2015, and it’s insane how far it’s came since those trading post days
u guys are the best. looks so good its all the things 117 is missing. THAT VIEW DISTANCE THO. so nice
Other than god rays, what exactly does this bring to the table that 117 doesn’t?
@@AlexFromIT Better performance.
@@TheInstaShark thats more because of the client itself; runelite is java and jagex's own client is c++. I think HDOS is based on the official client too which is also why that runs so good
@@TheInstaShark HDOS called; said theyve had that for 3 years - literally all this update is is allowing your CPU to utilize more of its cores; however, itll likely only ever max out 2 which is still better than maxing out 1 of the vanilla client... HDOS has had all of these graphical features and more (+ all CPU core performance gain) for years let alone 117HD which has had the same graphical features as 'HD' osrs since its inception...
lighting + skyboxes apparently = HD... who knew!
in reality - jagex is only updating osrs to the same Runetek as RS3 because from a business standpoint it makes 100% sense to dev both games on the same engine so you can mix and match devs at will... only time will tell if that 'corrupts' the dev pool... but honestly, this is the least impressive update of the winter summit for all of the previous reasons.
@@kendog0013 I stopped reading your comment at HDOS. Sorry. 😔
If possible I’d like an HDOS option reminiscent of 2012 scape. That’d be a dream come true
Dude the 2010 era was visually amazing to me, I miss it. Saw someone using a client that looked like it. Gonna have to check it out.
It’s actually called HDOS and you can just use it safely
HDOS@@RVPissBoys
Been wanting to play again for a while now! It’s time to come back, this first look is amazing 🔥
Dont ever stop the updates for osrs. Rarely do we get a company that cares about an old game like Jagex. Thank you !!!!
??
They don't care about the game. They just care about the cash paid memberships, it's all just money to them
@@local_authority Try a Blizzard game (wow classic), and you'll see how spoiled you are here with these devs.
Uhm wdym they care? You never seen hundreds of bots in every world?
@@pjrotsaert2832 facts 😂😂
It's amazing to see how far OSRS has come.
THANK YOU. Best update news in a long time. I get people want to keep the gameplay 2007 but theirs a point when it is too 2007. But then again, if they want to keep it that way, they can. AMAZING news!
Most people want 2010 graphics with 2007 gameplay
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 HDOS has been getting pretty good with their plugin support recently
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 You can already get that with HDOS, it's a 3pc that offers the 09-2011 graphics.
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 where are you getting "most" from?
Looks amazing! As someone who hasn't played in many years, only coming across this video by chance. Almost makes me want to give it another go. Keep going strong OSRS!
I hope they add an option for RSHD models as replacements, too. That would make me permanently play this game.
This looks way better than 117HD. ADD DAY AND NIGHT CYCLES! ADD CHANGES DURING CYCLES, MAKE IT RIGHT.
I don’t wanna hear people whine about how it won’t be “original”, it would be sick.
I hope the ground tile blending can be made to match 117's quality
WOW! Well done! Especially with the optional settings, so many people will be so happy to be able to choose and customize their experience. We all fell in love with RS back in the day at different stages. Now we can all experience them!
I still remember the day that Runescape originally switched to "HD" graphics. Fairly sure it was back in 2008. 12 year old me was very excited about the change!
I do still miss the HD era of textures, from 2008-ish, since RS3 is replacing all of those, but this is a good compromise and makes the game more pleasing to look at :)
Use HDOS, that's 2008 but even better.
@@me-7873 I recall that uses its own new textures and not the original jagex made one doesn't it? Im mostly looking for thr originals as rs3 is sadly removing them all with every graphical update when I'm not a fan of the flat rug looking ground texture :(
@@MasterSorezIt looks pretty much like the game did in 2008/9 and plug in support is growing constantly
@@MasterSorezHDOS is literally an exact replica of the graphics you/I miss and it also has improved performance and plug-in support.
oh hey fancy seeing you here :> i'm liking the style too will defo be reinstalling!
Pumped for this on mobile
As a graphics programmer and enjoyer of RuneScape, I approve this message!
That water looks soooo clean! Even more exciting to see sailing in the future!
I would love an optional 2008 textures mode
Would love to see official tiled texture support from the 2008 HD library. 117 is great but not exactly the ones I remember. I don't believe we saw any here just yet but if not now, I'm sure a community plugin will add them later.
This is the comment I was looking for! Everything looks great but the textures don’t seem to get any attention in this video. Hopefully I’m wrong…
Always wanted to get back into OSRS. I played a lot as a kid in 2005 and the quests are very nostalgic for me.
Even alles the soundtracks... I started again 3 months ago after 15 years... Its so nostalgic 😂😂😂
i had the exact the same idea, and i did while back..... i have now 40 days playtime haha awsome game!
I still remember playing a private server where you could on the fly toggle between 2006-2010 graphics and models. This is a nice step in that direction.
Not sure if it's planned or not, but a toggle for 2008 HD-esque models would be nice. I personally really liked the character models around that time.
Hell yea
Would be cool, but until they do that you can use a Jagex approved 3pc called HDOS. It has the exact graphics you are talking about, the performance on it is amazing, plus it has plugin support
Is there any plans to add additional options like tile blending? I really like the effect that tile blending has in RS3.
In no way am I saying that we need more RS3 features, but the tile blending had actually been an option since the original RS2 HD update if I remember correctly.
Awesome! Thank you for importving the game :)
This is amazing!!! As someone who just a few months ago started fresh on OSRS after quitting RS3 in 2013, I am overjoyed to see how much love this timeless game is STILL getting. You can see the genuine pride on his face during this presentation, he truly loves his work, and he knows the labor of he and his team will bring so much happiness to thousands of players.
Thank you soooooooooo much OSRS team!!!!
would it ever be possible to see activity on separate floors? for example in the Prifddinas shot, seeing npcs and players down below?
pretty sure the priff upstairs are coded as seperate floors, so probably not
Engine work
Runescape is made on different levels so going upstairs is essentially another map
@@HCProds1 im aware just thought maybe the new renderer would make it possible
they didnt mention it here. but this update comes with a combat overhaul as well.
Uh oh lol
hopefully it just means better animations in combat and also general animation improvements.
Big hype!! Especially with it being customizable and not loosing its nostalgic looks!!
This seems pretty cool! Cant wait for the update!
Still waiting..
Same lol
Wow that's the best news I've heard in years. Great job! 😊
Amazing!! I was. Waiting for this for years but,, Would love to see additional toggle options in the future like maybe HD textures
yes for sure a texture remake and also improved animations would be great.
This looks amazing!! And new water shaders and clouds/skybox, yes!
I'll use it for skilling, easy slayer tasks, and chilling and things like tempross, but for main stuff Runelite still has too much to pass up on. It will be interesting to see the war that happens when Jagex eventually gets the best stuff from Runelite into the offical launcher, I bet you anything they will force Runelite to shut down, maybe pay him off or something, but it will be a huge drama lol, come back to this comment in 2 years.
Or they do what wildcard did with S+ and ark just straight hire the guy to work on the official version when they integrate it
That would be cool, but feel its a low chance@@Calliegun
As a relatively new player, I enjoy switching between different graphic options on the fly - makes the whole experience more enjoyable
I love it ! I have been waiting a long time for this!
Love it, looks amazing especially the skyboxes I WANT IT haha, awesome work can't wait to get it :D
You guys might actually succeed in making the official client THE client to use! I hope to see all this rolled out soon, can't wait to see the official Jagex take on OSRS HD
These updates will make it into runelite just like every other update. Runelite still loads the official client, it then injects its self into it and replaces a couple things with hooks that's other developments can use to make plugins
@@__Brandon__ Sorry to burst your bubble, but it actually won't because RL runs off the Java client. This HD mode will be apart of their new c++ client, which is shown in this video. So there's absolutely no way RL can get a hold of these graphics
@@e.selmanii7044 I didn't realize they had a C++ client
@@e.selmanii7044bro it looks worse than runelites 117HD plug in … idk what you are on about
This is amazing, but Id like to see this lighting with 2008/2009 era HD models and textures. 117HD always felt weirdly incomplete to me and this does too because of this (yes, i realize this is an early alpha look). For me, a true official HD wont be here without HD models and textures
You mean like HDOS?
08' era and onwards HD is disgusting. This official HD is much better.
117 just enhances the original runescape look. HDOS is the client you should look for if you want the updated models from 2008.
I mean I find this is a very complete look, the lighting style matches the flat shaded models quite well, they clearly setup all the effects to match OSRS's models.
you're the only thing disgusting.@@Elit3Blaze
This level of customisation really is so lovely. And props for keeping the charm of the great polygon artstyle fully intact along with this HD features.
Looks amazing, inspiring me to start playing again!
I cant wait for this to come out in 5 years
“You’ll hear from us again soon.”
What’s up Jagex? Tick tock
Oh my god, that is huge! I love it
Nice update! Looking forward
I pray that animation smoothing will be included and perfected. There's so many issues with the plugin, but it's so important to me as the old twitchy animations give me a headache.
They won't add animation smoothing I don't think, that just ruins the animations, they would need to redo the old animations fully. But at least new content won't have that problem as since ToA I believe they started using 3Dmax Maya for their animations instead of internal tools, which is why there was a big improvement since.
@@namesii1880 I see... Newer content is definitely better, but I would really like to see some smoothing without having to jump through hoops or have the bugs associated with the plugin.
Thanks for the info friend.
This mixed with plugin support in the official client is going to make me switch over to OSRS from RS3, which is something I genuinely didn't think y'all could make me do.
Helps that the RS3 team have announced nearly nothing for 2024, the current uninteresting storyline is going to last another full year, Vorkath is awful, Necromancy released half-baked and they're not releasing wave 2 of it until they spend over a year using players as a QA department to fix it, they keep pushing MTX further and further, and Mod Shogun switched games. Genuinely an awful time over there. I hope they get their act together after Jagex gets sold, but it'll probably just get worse.
Are you not aware of Runelite? HD and plugin support has been a thing for about 6 years.
I'm all for it! HD mobile will be cool too! :D looking forward to an amazing year of OSRS. Thank you devs :)
Looks awesome! Hopefully the ground will be better blended together so there isn't sharp color differences between tiles anymore. Or atleast this will come later.
I actually want things to look more like they’re from 2004.
Good for you. Autismo
I really hope I can still use the HDOS -client, as I prefer those graphics much more
U can for now
@@shore73 Yea... for now...
you will still be able to use 117Scape and HDOS after these updates launch.
I've been playing OSRS on and off again for years and have been on a long break. This might bring me back to the game. This looks so good!
Thanks for giving us choice!!! It almost brought tears to my eyes. Nostalgia!
isn't this what 117 HD already does?
this is for mobile tho
and... extremely optional. Thank you.
i can't fathom why you like worse graphics
@@Strange9952 I can't fathom why it's needed in Old School RuneScape. It seems like Jagex is working on it just to keep some of the fanbase playing.

@@Strange9952 Because what looks "better" isn't always what looks *better*. For example, there is a reason why all around the world there are classic car scenes with vehicles dating all way back to the dawn of automobiles.

@@USAConservative Because it's 2024 and we ain't playing with pentium machines anymore. We got big screens and want the game to look pretty.

I love this so much. I feel nostalig about the old models, but I would love an update for new players and for me to experience osrs in a new light
More like ruining the game but hey! smoke another one!
Im so glad i quit RS3 after so many years of disappointments, playing OSRS full time is just magical 🤘🏻
HD is a great progression forward, hopefully the plugin hub gets implemented and we can all use the official client over Runelite going forward!
but HDOS has the best era graphics
Getting same goosebump vibes from this video as back in the day when they previewed runetek 4
Umm this looks beyond amazing! Thank you so much!
Rs3 player here, we basically already have all of this, you osrs players are gonna love it if they implement it correctly
we already have most of it on oldschool as well. it just isnt offered by Jagex themselves
RS3 graphics look disgusting, this looks much better than RS3.
I can't wait for Old-school-old-school Runescape
This is cool. Now we just need Animation Pack 1 reimplemented. Anyone remember how the dragon scimitar looked right before EOC changed the model again? Not the version with the three straight spikes, but the one with the tan curved handguard. That would be awesome to have as a toggle to go with this graphical mode, since we're now basically emulating the original RS2HD update from 2008-ish.
Haven't played osrs in about a year, ready to return. I hope the team keeps up bringing quality to the game.
Not on runelite = dead content
RS Classic HD when?
Jagex with OSRS deserves 2024's "best Community Support" Games Award, 100%
Wow. I'm excited for this.
I guess soon is 2-3 months from since the video released.
I can’t wait for it. It’s time to see if blue protocol comes out or the hd client for osrs does.
The part that I love the most is not just the graphical update that looks awesome obvs but the fact that they actually give you a choice on the version that you wanna look at and see.
Smooth animations and 360 fps this will be golden
I haven't logged in for 10 years, but seeing this still excites me and puts a smile on my face.
Looks great, I'm glad they're not using the "new" player models we were introduced to shortly before EoC. They are really killing it when it comes to striking that balance between old and new graphics. Kourend is absolutely beautiful while feeling faithful to Old School.
Looking similiar to the CGI cinematics, great work!
Amazing! Letting players toggle their desired renderer is definitely the way to go. Would love to see additional toggle options in the future like maybe HD textures??😮
The point light on the mouse looks really cool, is that just a testing thing or would that me implemented as an option?
