After months of wandering in a foreign land, Ryan finally managed to make his way back to RuneRebels headquarters. Dazed and confused, he saw that many of the usual suspects were still waiting in the lobby. Brownay, Wirt, HeavyB and J U S T I N were sitting around having a few beers around a fire. "Oh my god, hes alive!" shouted one of them. "Yeah sorry about that, I got lost in a basement flood" replied Ryan as he ran over to his office to get back to work.

Hello players! We apologize about large multi-month gap in updates. After the flood I was very busy with real life stuff, but behind the scenes I was making sure that the servers and service were still up and running smoothly. We even went through some major backend updates over the past few months (such as moving to Ubuntu 20.04, MySQL 8, and so on) without any interruptions to the game! But that being said, we would like to return to our regular cadenence of monthly updates. We would also like to be more transparent about what we are working on, especially with our most loyal players. We look forward to seeing you in the game and in the Discord!

- The RuneRebels Dev Team
