by Emery Apr 27,2025

After two unsuccessful launches, the highly anticipated Roblox RPG, Rune Slayer, is gearing up for its third attempt. The burning question on everyone's mind: Will it be shut down again, or will the third time indeed be the charm? We're all rooting for the latter. Here's a comprehensive update on what we know so far.

Rune Slayer is set to make its third debut on February 21st, 2025, at precisely 3 PM (CT). This information was directly confirmed by a developer on the official Rune Slayer Discord channel. The team is currently putting the final touches on the game and conducting thorough testing ahead of the release.

The first two releases of Rune Slayer were unfortunately short-lived, as the game was taken down within hours by Roblox's automatic security system. Initially, the reason behind these shutdowns remained a mystery, but it was later disclosed that the issue stemmed from unfiltered chat. For a deeper dive into this matter, check out our detailed article, Rune Slayer: Why was it taken down twice?
