RuneScape's player-owned ports have added a new layer of intrigue and adventure today with the game's first patch of the year.

Player-owned ports can now launch 300 additional voyages to two new regions. There are also three new adventurers available for recruitment: the Trapper, the Architect, and the Chef. A shady trader has also set up shop in these ports to offer goods at a questionable exchange rate.

This high-level minigame sees players operating their own sea ports and equipping ships to go on real-time adventures around the virtual world. Player-owned RS Gold ports launched in late 2012.
