About RuneScape


RuneScape is Jagex’s claim to fame. The franchise has had three mainline games and an offshoot (Old School RuneScape) from an earlier build. While only the latest main game and the spin-off are the only live video games, it has various other media, such as board games, under its belt. The game was first released in 2001, making it one of the longest-lasting live-service games. Even after 20 years, RuneScape still has a vast player base, spiking at times but consistent otherwise. Its open-world sandbox and freedom of player choice attract many, giving a constant stream of new and returning members. For the latest Runescape player counts, check out our tool.
