Not content with players taking on a massive world-eating beast, Jagex this week rolled out a summer event for RuneScape. The Summer Beach Party runs until the end of August, and has players participating in activities for lumps of experience and exclusive items and cosmetics.

There are number of summer-themed activities to get involved with, including: sandcastle building, rock pool fishing, beach grills and even a coconut shy. Each activity rewards players with skill-based XP as well as a number of summer emotes and cosmetic items.

RuneScape Summer Updates Include Raids, World Event


meteor

RuneScape is no stranger to objects falling from the sky, in fact it seems to precede a lot of major events in the world. While running around Gielinor, you may notice a mysterious meteorite crash from the sky. Investigate the meteorite for a small amount of experience as well as a relic that presently has no use.

The first update of June is RuneScape’s third world event, tasking players with cooperating to defeat Tuska and save the world from certain* destruction. Later on, players will be able to join in on RuneScape’s first raids, bringing down tough bosses designed for teams of ten players. Raids will send players to the new world of Mazcab, however players will have a chance to gain reputation before the content is released.

This summer also sees the re-launch of RuneScape’s summer membership special. Available as a three month purchase or automatically to those who bought into the annual premiere club, the summer special bestows players with the enlightenment aura (2x exp for one hour, once a week, during the summer months of June, July, and August), and cosmic foresight, allowing players to passively obtain reputation for the upcoming raid content.

You can find more information on the upcoming content below.

AA_Beta4_EN_952x414

ArcheAge beta tests are like the McRib, they only come around for a little while and the next event is always sooner than you think. Whether you’re itching to get in for the first time or have already tested ArcheAge and are hungry for more (or have to wait out your prison sentence), you’ll be glad to hear that the next closed beta event begins August 22nd and goes through August 27th. Your crops will pick up exactly where they left off at the end of the previous event.

What’s new? Now you can play ArcheAge in English, German, and even French. Beta Event 3 keys will not be valid this time around, but you’ll be able to grab a key from a number of partner sites (not MMO Fallout, we’re not a partner site) in the coming days. Otherwise you can buy into the ArcheAge founders packs and get instant access.
