Get ready to journey into the depths of the Underworld with RuneScape's first boss dungeon, the Sanctum of Rebirth.

Sanctum of Rebirth
RuneScape's first boss dungeon

Dive headfirst into the depths of the Underworld with RuneScape's first boss dungeon, the Sanctum of Rebirth.

Here you will confront powerful soul devourers in a brand-new back-to-back bossing experience. Face the boss dungeon alone or with a group of up to four brave adventurers, choosing between normal mode with a unique death system designed to be approachable for combat enthusiasts, or a more challenging hard mode for combat veterans. Earn epic new rewards, including new T95 Dual Wield Magic weapons!

Find out more in our launch day blog!

Oh and Death has waived his death costs this week so dive in and give the bosses a try!
