RuneScape har efterhånden en del år på bagen, og det store gratis rollespil er endelig på vej i ny form til PC. RuneScape 3 er navnet, og nu har spillet fået en officiel lanceringsdato. Den 22 juli kan spillere tage kampen op i det tolv år gamle rollespil med en HTML5-optimeret udgave af gratisspillet.
Selv skriver udvikleren:
RuneScape 3 will mark the massively multiplayer online game's transition to the cutting-edge browser technology of HTML 5, enabling any player to embark on the world's biggest adventure without the requirement for Java nor any other plugins. The use of the proprietary HTML 5 engine allows for significant enhancements to the player experience such as improved graphics, longer draw distances, an upgraded camera system and superior audio. The addition of seasonal high scores will allow all players in the community to compete on weekly and monthly leader boards.
The launch of RuneScape 3 will also see player decisions directly shaping the future of Gielinor, its inhabitants and scenery for the very first time. It will also marking the beginning of RuneScape's inaugural community-focused world event, The Battle for Lumbridge. In addition to the technological leap RuneScape 3 sees the world of Gielinor enter the 6th Age, a significant new milestone in RuneScape's vast heritage, as the gods of RuneScape return to re-exert their authority.
