Dragonwilds focuses on crafting, survival, and core Runescape gameplay elements. It joins other major updates like Fellhollow and Dowdun Reach ahead of its full 1.0 launch. The game aims to reach more players globally through console availability.
Subscribers to PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium will receive a $30 discount on the game's purchase price. Dragonwilds will be available on these tiers in September. The discounted pricing is designed to provide an affordable entry point for current PlayStation Plus subscribers.
Jesse America, the Executive Producer, states that bringing Dragonwilds to new platforms like PS5 is key to unleashing its magic. The game's focus on crafting and survival aligns with Runescape's core identity. The console release allows the game to reach a wider audience of players outside of the PC gaming community.
Dragonwilds follows a successful Early Access period that drove over one million sales. Its full 1.0 launch in September builds on previous updates like Fellhollow and Dowdun Reach. Bringing the title to PlayStation 5 represents a major milestone in expanding the franchise's reach across different gaming platforms.
