RuneScape: Dragonwilds Confirmed for Xbox Game Pass Day One Launch

Jagex has officially confirmed that RuneScape: Dragonwilds will arrive on Xbox Series X|S as a day one release for Xbox Game Pass. The title is scheduled to launch on September 15, 2026, marking the first time the long-running franchise has appeared on a console platform.

Quick Facts

Release Date: September 15, 2026
Platform: Xbox Series X|S
Availability: Day one on Xbox Game Pass
Developer/Publisher: Jagex

Although the game has been available in early access on PC for the past year, Jagex is positioning the September 15 arrival as a 1.0 launch. The title, which has maintained "Very Positive" reviews on Steam, shifts away from the classic point-and-click browser mechanics of the original RuneScape, instead offering a co-operative survival adventure experience.

Set on the continent of Ashenfall, the game tasks players with gathering, building, and crafting to survive against a rising dragon threat. While the publisher has not yet explicitly confirmed which specific tiers of the service will include the title, it is expected to be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers upon launch.
