About RuneLite

RuneLite is a third-party game client for Old School RuneScape, used instead of the official desktop client. It adds GPU rendering for higher frame rates and draw distance, overlays for boosts, timers and enemy health, a loot tracker with drop prices, and Discord Rich Presence.

Features are organised as plugins you can switch on individually, and the Plugin Hub adds more written by the community. You still need an Old School RuneScape account to play.

The macOS app is a small launcher, published separately for Apple silicon and Intel, that downloads and updates the client itself when it starts. The launcher and the client live in two repositories, both under the BSD-2-Clause license.
