OSRS Leagues 6: Demonic Pacts release date speculation and what to expect

After a long wait, Old School RuneScape has finally announced Leagues 6, dubbed 'Demonic Pacts'.

It's been a year since Leagues 5 ended, with Raging Echoes finishing up as one of the best Leagues yet.

Now, after months of rumours, we can finally start getting excited for the next edition.

So, when might Leagues 6 start in OSRS, and what can we expect from it? Here's what we know so far.

OSRS Leagues 6: Demonic Pacts release date speculation

At the time of writing, Jagex has not confirmed the release date of Leagues 6, but that doesn't mean we don't have our suspicions.

In the teaser trailer, released as part of the New Game+ showcase, the number 666 features prominently.

Now, this could just be a reference to the devil's number, but if we translate that into a date, it could translate to 6th June 2006, the date of the infamous Falador Massacre.

As such, to mark the 20th anniversary of the Falador Massacre, we predict that Leagues 6 will begin on 6th June 2026.

Either way, we'll be hearing more about it at the upcoming Winter Summit on 25th January 2026, so tune in!

What to expect from Leagues 6 in OSRS

For the moment, Jagex hasn't announced anything about Leagues 6, and all we can really surmise is that it will have something to do with demons, if the name Demonic Pacts is any indication.

What you can probably count on is more bosses, Relics, Combat Masteries and a whole lot of boosted XP rates.

Aside from that, expect that the region locking introduced in Trailblazer League will probably make a return once more.

Again, Jagex has confirmed that a bigger reveal of Leagues 6 will be taking place at the Winter Summit on 25th January, so we'll soon be finding out more!
