[2023] Returning player after about five months. What did I miss?

Welcome back!

The past five months of the year have mostly been focused around the Fort Forinthry Season - which is a new upgradeable area that gives you a ton of benefits and is the basis for all the story this year.

Here's the first update, New Foundations, which was about the base buildings for the Fort, new Construction Training methods and the start of the storyline: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/february-content-drop-new-foundations

Then we had a classic style RuneScape quest with Murder On The Border, which also includes a new Kitchen you can build for Cooking benefits: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/new-quest-murder-on-the-border

After that was Unwelcome Guests, which expands the story further and introduces new Slayer Benefits with the Guardhouse plus a new Slayer Master with tasks: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/unwelcome-guests---fort-forinthry-season-update

And on Monday, it expands again with Woodcutters' Grove: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/woodcutters-grove---fort-forinthry-season-update

Those are the main bits! There's been other big changes like Max Cash limits increasing, Death Cost reductions, Graphical Updates, Community Hitlist and such which you can find by going through our old RuneScape News Posts.

Hope that helps and good luck on your continued adventure!
