Utvikler Jagex har avslørt at de har hatt sitt beste år noensinne. I 2018 lanserte de Old School RuneScape på mobil - et spill som kan skilte med fem millioner nedlastninger på Android og iOS.
I tillegg har RuneScape-franchisen flere betalte medlemskap enn noensinne, og antall aktive månedlige brukere har mer enn doblet i løpet av året. De har tjent over en milliard i løpet av levetiden sin, og har til og med hyret inn 100 nye folk. Phil Mansell, Jagex CEO, hadde dette å si om suksessen til selskapet:
"2018 was a fantastic year for our RuneScape games, which have truly come of age. The franchise has been growing consistently for five years, and we've seen a surge of further community growth with the move to mobile. Old School RuneScape's successful mobile launch was made possible by our incredible team who've been able to make this classic game play smoothly in a mobile form-factor, and which allows players to enjoy the convenience of completely interoperable PC to mobile cross-play. This achievement showcases our living games philosophy; bringing deeply engaging community experiences to players wherever they are."
"We find that the more we listen to, engage with, and empower the community the more if fosters a true connection; with each other and with the games. The big increases we're seeing in both membership and active users show that we're not only able to bring new players into RuneScape but we're able to offer the kind of rich, evergreen content that keeps them engaged for the long term."
