OSRS Proposes a November Quest Month With Weekly Releases
The OSRS team wants to release The Graveyard and at least five surprise quests across November. Most of the plan still depends on a player poll and feedback.
A proposal, not a locked release calendar
The Old School RuneScape team unveiled its Quest Month proposal on 3 October 2026. It sketches out a November filled with consecutive adventures, but the central idea still needs approval through a player poll. The announcement should therefore be treated as a plan open to voting and feedback, rather than a guaranteed release calendar.
The Graveyard is further along than the rest of the package. It has already passed the Campfire poll and is currently planned for November. If Quest Month is approved, that adventure would be joined by at least five additional surprise quests. The proposed pace calls for no fewer than one quest release during every week of the month.
How the November lineup would work
Most of the additional quests would sit at Novice or Intermediate difficulty, and none would rank above Experienced. Although that establishes a clear ceiling for the planned content, names, stories and gameplay details will remain concealed in advance. Players would discover what each adventure contains only when its individual release arrives.
Keeping the quests secret does not remove later decisions about their rewards. The developers plan to put notable rewards into separate player polls at a later stage. Each quest would still provide experience and quest points suited to its scope. Under this structure, the first vote can address the broader month-long concept while consequential reward choices remain subject to further approval.
Quest-log tools and older rewards are also included
The proposal extends beyond the new adventures. It also covers better starter sorting and improvements to the Activity Advisor. These are presented as quality-of-life changes that could make the available paths easier to organise for newer players, though their inclusion in the proposal does not make their final form or delivery automatic.
Players would be able to pin quests that are currently in progress, while completed quests would move to the bottom of the list by default. The Daddy's Home miniquest is also named as the first possible candidate for conversion into a full quest. If accepted, that reclassification could establish an initial precedent for how comparable content is categorised later.
Older quests could receive additional experience rewards, with players who completed them previously able to claim the relevant experience from Perdu. The team is also considering an optional 0โ5 quest-rating prompt. It would be enabled by default, but submitting a score would remain voluntary, offering a direct way to gather reactions after players encounter the content.
The Lumbridge cleanup depends on feedback
A related Lumbridge cleanup would consolidate tutors and other NPCs into a less cluttered arrangement. The proposal does not aim to remove guidance embedded in the game world; it specifically calls for that in-world help to be preserved while the area's characters and functions are organised more coherently.
The team intends to pursue this cleanup alongside the November plans only if feedback is favourable. For now, The Graveyard's Campfire approval should be distinguished from the broader package: Quest Month, the additional surprises and the quality-of-life proposals remain dependent on their respective polling and feedback. They are possible November deliveries, not final promises.
