January 26th | Ends February 1st | *NEW PROMOTION* Loot Rooms

An all-new Treasure Hunter arrives Thursday, Jan 26th – may we usher you inside the Loot Rooms?

Pick between two types of chest, just like Loot Duels. All sorts of chests are on offer, from Antique Chests to Skilling Chests, Double Dragon Chests to Money Chests.

You'll get instant rewards from the chest based on type, and a duplicate version will also be placed in your Loot Room.

Once you've opened eight Chests, enter the Loot Room and open 4 more Chests - without the use of Keys - from your selection of duplicates!

Loot Rooms launches on January 26th and ends February 1st.

Watch the show live on Twitch.
