THE ERA OF HD OLD SCHOOL

Did you play RuneScape in 2009? For some OSRS players, a lot of their memories were the times of the newer Abyssal whip, Alchemy spells, and more aesthetic environments and areas. The HDOS client provides OSRS players with a true 2009-era HD experience to play RuneScape in ways they haven’t imagined in over a decade.
