How to Check RuneScape Server Status

As with many other games, the best method to check the RuneScape server status is via their Twitter. It’s here where the development staff will let players know about outages and service interruptions. They’ll also inform users when the outages or interruptions have been corrected. If you check their account and see nothing regarding potential problems with the game, then the issue may be a local one.

Another resource to determine the server status would be to head for the game’s official website. It’s here where you can jump into the new version of the game or revert to the old school version. You can also get the latest information regarding updates, check out the shop, and more!

If you’re not seeing anything in regards to a widespread outage, the problem may be local. Try restarting your computer, the game client, or performing a fresh install to see if that fixes the problem!

RuneScape has been the go-to destination for players who desired a free-to-play MMORPG since 2001. It continues to be a powerhouse in that community, and can be played for free via PC and mobile devices.
