OSRS latest news is giving players plenty to talk about in September 2026, with a brand-new Fremennik update now being developed, two recent quests already live, and several other changes landing across Old School RuneScape.
The biggest story right now is The Graveyard, a new Fremennik quest and Agility course that Jagex is preparing to put to a player poll. At the same time, A Ruff Situation and Crab Quest have gone live, giving players two fresh pieces of quest content to tackle immediately. Jagex has also published updates covering the Jagex Launcher on Mac and its position on cryptocurrency and market manipulation.
For anyone searching for the latest OSRS news and buy OSRS gold, September is shaping up to be one of the busier months of the year.
OSRS The Graveyard Update Is the Biggest New Story
The Graveyard is currently one of the most interesting upcoming pieces of OSRS content.
Jagex published a rewards blog on September 14 detailing the proposed Fremennik quest and its accompanying Agility course. The quest is tied to the Fremennik storyline and requires players to complete Olaf's Quest, The Fremennik Exiles and Pandemonium, alongside 65 Sailing, 65 Agility, 56 Woodcutting and 54 Fletching.
The Agility course may ultimately be even more important than the quest itself.
Jagex's proposal is designed around different intensity levels, including a lower-intensity training option and a faster, more demanding route. Community discussion has already focused heavily on experience rates, Marks of Grace and how the course could affect existing methods such as Ardougne rooftops, the Penguin Agility Course and Hallowed Sepulchre.
That balance will matter because players are already questioning whether the new course could become too strong.
The proposal has generated substantial community discussion, including concerns that giving one activity strong XP rates, Marks of Grace and pet opportunities could push older Agility methods out of the meta. Jagex representatives have already acknowledged that feedback and said they are considering the balance implications before the update moves forward.
A Ruff Situation and Crab Quest Are Live Now
While The Graveyard is still being discussed, players already have two new quests available.
The September 8 update added A Ruff Situation and Crab Quest to OSRS. Jagex described the update as an animal-themed addition to Gielinor, with the first quest introducing a new dog shelter near Ice Mountain and the second sending players toward Dognose Island to interact with crabs.
A Ruff Situation is particularly notable because its rewards go beyond a traditional quest completion.
Players can unlock puppies and dogs, with 12 dog breeds planned for the feature. Dogs can also help with Treasure Trail digging, giving the otherwise charming reward a practical use. The quest passed its original poll with 89.5% support, while the puppy follower proposal received 88.4%.
Crab Quest takes a much stranger approach.
The quest requires 40 Sailing and 30 Fishing, sending players to Dognose Island to investigate the mysterious bottle and communicate with crabs. It also passed the poll with 88.7% support, showing just how receptive the OSRS community was to these unusual side stories.
OSRS Bronzeman Mode Could Still Become a Big Deal
Another major discussion surrounding the current OSRS update cycle is Bronzeman Mode.
Jagex proposed an official Bronzeman Mode that combines Ironman-style restrictions with limited access to the Grand Exchange. The core idea is that players would need to obtain an item themselves before being able to buy or sell that item through the Grand Exchange.
The proposal received 64.4% support in the August poll, passing the question comfortably. Jagex later ran a follow-up opinion survey to better understand why players voted for or against it, particularly after confusion surrounding the separate “Unbound Bronzema
