Following on from my recent dev blog about our ideas for RuneScape Classic, we are delighted to offer RuneScape members the opportunity to try Classic for themselves! For two weeks starting from today, Classic is open for new sign-ups from RuneScape members only.

If you access Classic during this two-week period (using your normal username and password), you will continue to be able to do so after the two weeks are over. If, however, you do not, you will miss out on the chance to do so, so give it a try.

There are 15 members' worlds, one of which will be left as being only accessible to those veteran Classic players who have stuck with it all the way through.

You can access RuneScape Classic here.

RuneScape Classic is the predecessor to the current RuneScape game. It was closed to new members over four years ago, but we want for players to be able to try out this important part of our history. We also have potential further plans for Classic (as discussed in this blog), so another reason for this re-opening is to see how many people are interested.

Note: If you would like to skip the RuneScape Classic tutorial, there is a button to do so in the 'Spanner' menu in game.

So, right now it's only open to members. I don't know if they plan to open it up to everyone or not.

Wow, so they bring back something that was F2P and totally sucked (in my opinion, and yes I've played the classic version). Not only that, they made it members only now (couldn't care less because it's horrible anyways). Now what I'm wondering is; why the hell did they remove it in the first place then?

i just punched myself in the nuts in joy.
but i doubt it will be open to all, so back to my Runescape classic pservers.

Am I one of the few people that didn't like Runescape even when I was a teenybopper? ;x

I liked the free skill system. If I was bored I'd go on to chop wood and make fires, roflmao.

Myth of Soma had a system like that; it was good for back in the day.
