New Cinematic Trailer Reveals RuneScape’s New Necromancy Combat Skill Coming August 7

Today, Jagex has announced the release date for RuneScape’s upcoming new combat skill, Necromancy, coming Friday, Aug. 7, 2023. Necromancy is a brand-new standalone combat skill – the first of its kind across the fantasy MMO’s two-decade history.

A brand-new, epic cinematic trailer has been released to show off the arcane and dark powers players will be harnessing later this summer. Witness Death’s plea for the heroes of Gielinor to pick up the dark art of Necromancy to rebalance the cycle of life and death.

Check out the new RuneScape Necromancy cinematic trailer:

Necromancy will be one of RuneScape’s premiere updates for 2023. The new combat style will challenge both experienced and new players alike as they embrace their inner darkness and learn this ancient combat art across a lore-filled and deep adventure.

Players will enter Gielinor’s underworld to commune and free the undead.  Together they will grow their powers and defeat the First Necromancer.  Wielding a Death Guard and Skull Lantern, players will battle fearsome enemies throughout Gielinor and the underworld, perfecting their Necromancy combat, Rituals and Runecrafting skills.

Necromancy will be free for players up to level 20. For more information, please visit the RuneScape website. RuneScape is available now on PC, Steam, iOS and Android, complete with cross-platform progression and play on PC and mobile.
