Old School RuneScape has announced that the popular Bounty Hunter mode will make its return to the game. Old School RuneScape remains extremely popular with the MMO community, despite the continuing development of RuneScape 3.
While Old School RuneScape was initially released in 2013 as an appeal to player nostalgia, the game has evolved in the last decade to become one of the most well-supported MMOs around. Every update to the game is voted on by the community before development, which makes sure that the majority of the community is always happy with the direction the game is heading in. Even though the game is based on a 2007 version of the game, this hasn't stopped some players from looking further into the past. Some RuneScape community members are looking for 2005-era builds of the game in the hope that they can archive the MMO for good.

Bounty Hunter's return was announced by Jagex, with a tweet and blog post detailing the plans for the mini-game. This, like all updates to Old School RuneScape, will involve a period of player consultation to ensure Bounty Hunter meets the needs of as many fans as possible. The plans go into detail about every element of the original Bounty Hunter, and how it will be iterated upon in a new release, including skulling, matchmaking, emblems, Bounty Hunter Points, and of course, monetary reward. It's another huge update for players to get excited about in 2023. After Old School RuneScape players voted to add the game's first-ever new skill, it was assumed that much of Jagex's development resources would be focused on that. It's good to see other big updates make their way to the title.
