Farming Skill Also Debuts in RuneScape: Dragonwilds
Fellhollow, the first major free update for RuneScape: Dragonwilds, is now available, inviting players into a haunting new region shaped by decay and corruption. This substantial expansion introduces fresh quests, dangerous enemies, a massive boss encounter, and a striking realm suspended between life and death.
In this update, Death guides players as a new questgiver and companion, leading them through mist-filled valleys, dead forests, ruined structures, and landscapes overtaken by the Wither Rot. This spreading corruption reshapes exploration and survival, introducing rot-afflicted enemies, environmental threats, and a powerful new status effect called Soul Rift.
As exposure to the Wither Rot increases, Soul Rift alters combat, exploration, and progression. New armour sets and consumables crafted from Fellhollow materials help resist its effects, while carefully managing exposure unlocks powerful abilities. Rift Sight reveals hidden paths, spectral doors, and secrets invisible to the living, while Imaru’s Gaze draws the attention of Fellhollow’s apex predator, Imaru the Soul Eater.
Once the guardian dragon of the region, Imaru has been transformed by grief into a terrifying, soul-devouring creature. As Death searches for a champion to end her curse, players continue the Kuldra Saga storyline through an epic, multi-phase boss battle against this corrupted dragon.
The update also introduces the Farming Skill to RuneScape: Dragonwilds. Inspired by classic RuneScape systems but reimagined with a magical focus, farming adds new depth to survival from the earliest stages of the game. Mounts arrive alongside this update as well, beginning with the Terrorbird, unlockable through a Fellhollow questline.
With more regional expansions planned for 2026, Fellhollow sets the foundation for the future of RuneScape: Dragonwilds, now available on Steam Early Access.
