Melvor Idle: Throne of the Herald DLC Launches Today The RuneScape-inspired idle game's first paid expansion brings new monsters, dungeons, townships and cross-platform mod support to mobile and PC, as well as a significant free update for all players

Throne of the Herald takes players on an exhilarating new journey through the world of Melvor as they seek answers about the mysterious Herald. Players will encounter a huge amount of new content as they progress through the game, now up to level 120, including new dungeons, new slayer areas, new monsters and a final boss fight to really put their new skills to the test. To help there’s also new items and gear, prayers, spells, curses, auroras and plenty more to be discovered.

Additionally, as part of a free update to the game players will be able to enjoy increased mod support, quality-of-life improvements and access to the highly anticipated Township skill.
