List of quests by release date

The Old School RuneScape Wiki also has an article on: osrsw:Quests/Release dates

For a continuous list of all quests, see List of quests.

This is a list of quest release dates in reverse chronological order. The total possible quest points (QP) at the time of release of each quest is also given.

Classification and status

This does not count reworked quests as new quests, and as such they do not increase the amount of quests nor do they increase the amount of quest points because the former quests' quest points are inherited by their reworked version.
