And of course, there were both PC and mobile versions of both Old School RuneScape and RuneScape. And there were interactive areas where players completed activities based on the game’s Fremmenik Trials, as well as an area for developers to showcase how characters and environments are created for the on-going game’s development. There were even human NPCs throughout, making actual chain mail and hammering helmets into shape. Having just crossed the $1 billion revenue threshold, Jagex spared no expense in bringing an amazing experience to its most hardcore fans (or at least those willing to make the annual pilgrimage to this fan convention).Ī cross between a huge E3 booth and a Disney World attraction, the Jagex events team brought every detail of the game’s land to life – right down to the sound of lava flowing in the mining site or the chirps of birds in the Fremennik forest area. And behind those black curtains was the world Rellekka, the Viking-inspired northern lands of RuneScape. Following an opening keynote on the morning of October 6, the rest of the massive convention center was opened up to the public. The tuxedo and black dress clad orchestra provided an interesting contrast to the cosplay and black t-shirt adorned gamers who packed the central area to take in the very “in-game” comedy that surrounded the game’s orchestral score. Entitled RuneScape Live: Gielinor in Harmony, the story-driven journey through the world of Gielinor featured a brand new storyline written by RuneScape’s narrative team.
