In a visual spectacle that would make even the most seasoned RuneScape veteran gasp in awe, Dragonwilds breathes new life into iconic characters, creatures, and lore with a stunning Unreal Engine 5 makeover. By staying true to RuneScape's visual identity while embarking on this thrilling new adventure, the team at Jagex pays homage to the game's legacy while boldly carving out a path for the future.
