After more than two decades, RuneScape has concluded its longest-running saga with Eclipse of the Heart. A new quest is now live on Android and other platforms. The Desert Saga questline has woven together years of lore and ancient prophecies.
It began 24 years ago with the simple mission to rescue Prince Ali. Over time, it evolved into a legendary odyssey across the desert, building toward a final showdown that will determine the fate of the world.
What’s Happening in the Story?
If you’ve followed along, you’ve traversed scorching dunes and uncovered hidden truths—awakening forgotten deities and witnessing betrayals that reshaped Gielinor’s balance of power.
Now, as the shadow of an eclipse looms over Menaphos, the city trembles beneath the arrival of Amascut, the Goddess of Destruction. What happens next rests in your hands, just as before.
To begin the Eclipse of the Heart quest, you must meet several RuneScape requirements: you need level 90 in Necromancy, level 65 in Agility, completion of Pharaoh’s Folly and the Do No Evil quest, and you must have constructed the necessary structures for the Fort Forinthry Storyline.
The quest begins in Menaphos, where Pharaoh Leela awaits to unveil a plan to stop Amascut before she devours the souls beneath the city. Amascut will appear as a full boss on August 4th.
What Rewards Does Eclipse of the Heart Offer?
Completing Eclipse of the Heart grants a new title and four Stone-Touched XP Lamps, each providing 250,000 XP. You’ll also earn desert-themed cosmetics for your Lorehound, the Amascut’s Eye skybox override, and upgraded Magic Carpet Dust.
Meanwhile, RuneScape is testing a major gameplay experiment from July 28th to September 30th. Cosmetic-Free Worlds will be part of the ongoing MTX Experiment—these special worlds will conceal cosmetic effects such as wardrobe overrides, teleport animations, pets, skilling icons, and hitsplats.
Grab the game from the Google Play Store. And stay tuned for our next update on Shaved Ice Décor Pikmin in Pikmin Bloom.
