''This page will be moved to the correct article title when the new skill is released. The current name of the skill is Dungeoneering. Do not place any speculation here, only facts confirmed by Jagex.''

Confirmed facts= Its now out, it's dungeoneering

 * In the February Q&A it was confirmed the new skill would not be a money sink skill.
 * It is definite that there is a new skill coming to RuneScape in 2010.
 * In the first question of a Q&A with Mark Gerhard in a Developer's Blog dated 6 August 2009, he confirmed that the new skill was available for all players, as since he was instated as CEO, he would give more updates to the free-version of the game, reiterating that the free-version is not a demo.
 * In Mod Fetzki's Q&A 2010, Fetzki said that this new skill will take free players beyond the (current) free player map.
 * Mod Mark discounted the idea of adding mounts, stating that they would be pretty much impossible to implement right now (perhaps due to the limitations of their RuneScript coding language).
 * Mods said that the skill will come closer to the middle of the year than the end. It was also mentioned that the skill will come at the best time of the year, which to many players still in school, would be summer vacation when they would not be bothered by school work.
 * Mod Mmg stated in his clan chat on April 7th, 2010 that "Eta on the new skill...it's so close it hurts!"
