Max, 1881, Max 3, and 3.8B capes

Chat links, emoji, ::discord, and ::sleep for everyone
Building on yesterday’s Halloween launch, this morning’s required client and world update makes chat safer and smoother. Update from the download page, hard-refresh Play in Browser, or let Direct Android update over the air. Older clients cannot log in.
Required clients
- Update every client. Desktop launcher, Play in Browser, and Direct Android all need this October 3 build. If login says your client is too old, download or update again from the website.
- PC chat Enter & private messages. Pressing Enter to send chat, commands, and PMs works reliably again after the unicode chat rollout.
- Emoji in chat. Desktop players can insert emoji with the system picker (for example Win + .). Android and browser keep full unicode chat support.
Safer chat links & Discord
- Clickable stream links. YouTube, Twitch, and Kick links in chat highlight in cyan and open when clicked.
- Link safety. Other websites, shortener links, and cloakers are blocked in chat so players are not sent through hidden redirects.
- Official Discord. Type
::discord for the official RSCRevived invite. That invite is clickable in-game; random Discord invites stay blocked.
- Official invite: https://discord.gg/4XAuyd873
Quality of life
- ::sleep for everyone. Any player can type
::sleep to clear fatigue—no Premium requirement.
- Halloween still live. Death Reapers, seasonal bags, and the October 1 quest/camera package from the October 2 go-live remain in the world. See the post below for the full Halloween notes.
Required update
October 1 · Live October 2
Halloween hunt, Death Reapers, and quest polish
The October 1 Halloween package is live as of October 2. Update from the download page, hard-refresh Play in Browser, or let Direct Android update over the air. Older clients cannot log in.
Halloween & Death Reapers
- Death Reaper look locked in. Hooded black robes, black eyes, black hands, and the scythe—no more red-eye glitches. Android cache mirrors were refreshed so phones match desktop and browser.
- Smarter Wilderness hunt. Reapers roam around fences and barriers, use diagonal paths, and recover when stuck instead of clipping through scenery.
- Clearer hunt status. Use
::reapers for wilderness level and F2P/Members zone info. Wave timers and overdue spawn recovery are more accurate.
- Seasonal bags retuned. Treat, Witching, and Reliquary bags drop from Reaper kills on the new rates. Classic Pumpkins can roll in every bag tier’s main loot.
- Halloween jackpots. Bag jackpots can award classic masks, a Pumpkin, or a Scythe. Dry streaks softly boost jackpot odds after several opens—never a guaranteed roll.
- Giant Present. The holiday present item is now named Giant Present, with matching open messages.
- Website autumn theme. rscrevived.org wears a Halloween / autumn skin through early November.
Required clients & camera
- Update every client. Desktop launcher, Play in Browser, and Direct Android all need the October build. If login says your client is too old, download or update again from the website.
- Camera zoom direction. Browser pinch and Android zoom now move the camera the way you expect (pinch out to zoom in on the world).
- Settings Home. Interface Style is no longer cut off halfway on Classic / compact canvases.
- Standing on scenery. Characters seat correctly on raised objects again instead of sinking into the tile.
Quests, Skill Island & quality of life
- Tourist Trap guide. The in-game quest tracker now follows all real stages through Ana’s rescue, with clearer wear-robe and pineapple-bribe hints at the doors and mining cave.
- Observatory telescope. Viewing a constellation no longer cancels the follow-up conversation options when you dismiss the picture.
- Klank’s gauntlets. Wearable while Underground Pass is in progress—not only after completion.
- Skill Island essence rock. Mine the essence rock from outside on every side; you no longer walk into the rock footprint.
- Classic NPC Database. Compact grey RSC-style bestiary with roster, details, and drops together. Website mirror: NPC Database.
- Safer rare rewards. World-first / mastery style rewards prefer your bank when you are in the Wilderness or fighting an NPC, so a full inventory does not eat the drop.
- High-level cheers. Levels 80–99 still congratulate in-game; Discord world chat mirrors the big milestones. Level 90–98 lines call out a rising legend.
September 25 · Roundup
Everything that shipped since September 17
It has been a packed week on RSCRevived. If you have not played in a few days, grab the newest client from the download page, hard-refresh browser play, and let Android update over the air. Several releases were required updates—older clients were shut off as we rolled out bank tools, boxing fixes, the classic NPC Database, and more.
Earlier in the week (September 17–20)
- Combat retreat. Walk here works again during fights after the opening rounds, so you are not stuck unable to leave combat.
- Bank & Settings. A clearer bank layout, sticky withdraw amounts, placeholders, loadouts, and a cleaner Settings menu without the old bottom overlay.
- Skills hub & Skill Island.
::skills and Collections SKILLS tab improvements, more training facilities on the island, and fair one-player-per-spot gathering.
- Event Talisman & boxing groundwork. A scrollable event hub for hosts and players, plus the September 20 client wave: steadier bank sorting, saved bank preferences per character, coal trucks banking your full coal inventory, and clearer clan and world map controls.
- Skill Island schedule (live). Open Thursday 12:00 AM Eastern through Tuesday 12:00 AM Eastern, with three hours open and three hours closed inside that window. Check status with
::skill or ::si.
- Soul runes & talismans (live). Soul Altar runecrafting is 135 XP per essence before multipliers. Talisman directions for Soul, Chaos, and Death were corrected, and the classic full recovery prayer altar behaves as a true full restore again.
September 21–22 — Required client updates & downloads
- Stay on the latest build. Desktop launcher, Play in Browser, and Direct Android all received mandatory updates across the week. If login says your client is too old, download or update again—do not skip the launcher refresh.
- Download page repaired. Broken Android and launcher links were fixed so RSCRevived 2, 3, and 4, the web client, and legacy aliases resolve correctly.
- Login fix for desktop and web. A brief window where fresh downloads failed login was corrected; relaunch the launcher or hard-refresh Play Now if you hit that issue.
- Overhead names in duels. Clan and username labels during duels and combat chat overlap less on screen.
- Event Talisman Details restored. Event hosts and staff get full detail panels and actions back on the in-game talisman after updating.
Bank quality of life (September 22–23)
- Saved bank layout. Sort mode, quantity buttons, favorites, filters, and related options follow your character across sessions and devices.
- Tab moves refresh instantly. Moving items between bank tabs updates the grid right away instead of showing a stale layout.
- Cross-tab Swap and Insert. Drag items between tabs with Swap or Insert modes; server-side support went live with matching client updates.
- Clearer controls. Loadouts chevron, Close button, and Swap/Insert/Fill hitboxes were tuned so mis-clicks are less common on desktop and Android.
- Optional simple bank layout. Interface settings can hide extra bank chrome while keeping search, tabs, and loadouts.
Boxing arena & community events
- Major boxing patch (September 22). Gallery and lobby routing, fight countdown overlays, mode rules (no retreat / prayer / magic where intended), open join for all combat levels on public modes, and fixes for walking to bank or Edgeville after event teleports.
- Flat’s 123 Weapons (live). The geared one-on-one mode was renamed for clarity, auto-issues kit and potions on join, and place rewards deliver more reliably when events finish naturally.
- Public modes today. Boxing 3s, Boxing 123s, and Flat’s 123 Weapons Gear; signup and spectator rules were tightened so you join fighters or watch at the right time.
- Pre-start countdown for hosts.
::boxing start can arm a five-minute countdown before bouts begin, with add-time, force-start, and cancel options.
- Ring duels during events. Paired fighters in the ring can duel when assigned; manual duels stay blocked while you are still in queue or waiting for the next round.
- Disconnect handling. Dropping connection while queued removes your seat safely and reminds you to type
::boxing to rejoin.
- Event Talisman polish. Cleaner boxing and Skill Island menus, categorized event lists, scroll fixes, and timer controls for boxing hosts on the latest clients.
- Join flow. Spectators who are not eligible for the current mode go to the gallery instead of clogging the fighter lobby.
Android: OTA, Repair cache, Lite, and installs
- Direct Android over-the-air. Game modules update from the website channel; keep host apps on RSCRevived 2, 3, or 4 current so OTA can apply.
- Repair cache. Production Android hosts include the Repair cache button to fix a broken cache without a full reinstall.
- Clearer install files. Download filenames avoid awkward spaces that tripped up Android’s package installer; use the buttons on Download for RSCRevived 2/3/4 and Lite.
- Background play fix. Switching apps on Android should keep the session alive with the proper “game running” notification after updating the OTA module.
- Branding cleanup. Client tips, cache paths, and Discord assets now say RSCRevived instead of legacy OpenRSC wording where players would see them.
September 24 — Classic NPC Database & quests
- Classic NPC Database UI (required update). The in-game bestiary is a compact grey RSC-style window: NPC list, search, details, and drop table together—no more tab-hopping dashboard. Update to the latest client to open it. Website mirror: NPC Database.
- Full monster roster. A follow-up server update registered quest, event, and custom NPCs that were missing from the catalogue, so search and drops match the live world more completely.
- Shilo Village softlock fixed. Progression after the bone shard and related steps no longer traps players at stacked rocks; if you were stuck, burying the shard and continuing the quest should work after the quest fix restart. See Quest guides.
Website & forum (brief)
- Easier navigation. Slimmer site menus, homepage platform shortcuts, and a smoother getting-started tour layout for guests.
- Forum identity. Owner and staff roles display correctly on posts, with in-game style crown icons beside names on thread pages.
- Account page reliability. Character lists on account.php should load consistently instead of randomly hanging.
- Online player list. Header counts and the live roster on the homepage match again.
September 25 — Double XP & Double Drops
- Weekend boost is on. Earn double experience and double drops while the event is active (planned through about September 27 Eastern). Stack your usual training or boss trips and make the most of it before it ends.
- Play on the current client. Use the same download or update path as always so skills, drops, and UI stay in sync with the live world.

September 18 · Client 1.40

Combat retreat works again

- No forced logout from the world. This is a client update—stay online, then launch the new client before your next fight.
September 16 · Community events
Fight Arena events are simpler, and the Event Talisman is clearer
Staff-hosted boxing is easier to join, and the in-game Event Talisman focuses on the events that are actually running.
- One clear Boxing flow. Event hosts no longer juggle separate mode lists—players get a straightforward boxing signup when an event is announced.
- Event Talisman shows what matters. The talisman interface is rebuilt so you can find live community events without digging through old menus.
- Older event clutter removed. Unused hosted formats (such as legacy deathmatch / tournament menus) are gone so the event list stays easy to read.
- Watch for staff announcements. When a Fight Arena event opens, join from the game under the rules announced for that match.

September 14 · Clans & NPC Database
In-game panels got a clearer look

September 17 · Community Forum
The forum looks like a real forum again
The community boards are laid out like a classic forum index so it is easier to find the right place to post.
- Board list with topics, posts, and last activity. Jump straight into news, guides, bugs, appeals, and introductions.
- Quick links for common needs. New players can open Guides or the Player Guide without hunting through menus.
