'''Hidden updates''' are updates which are not mentioned in the ''RuneScape'' news or the official forums. Jagex used to add many small updates and bug fixes which were too trivial to announce. They are now including most of their updates in the [[Update:Patch Notes|Patch Notes]] sticky of Recent Updates forum section. However, there are still some updates which are not included in the Patch Notes for various reasons. This page lists the hidden updates for 2012.
