RuneScape is Getting its Own Tabletop Games

The browser-based RPG that was once available has seen many alternative versions for its huge player base, with Old School RuneScape offering players with the classic experience of 2006 and the short-lived DarkScape providing players with an experience that is more PvP-based. extrememining Developer Jagex has joined forces with Steamforged Games, a board game developer, to release two tabletop games in 2022.

The latest collaboration between Steamforged Games and Jagex is the latest in a series of collaborations that bring the most popular gaming franchises into a tabletop setting. The tabletop gaming juggernaut has previously developed board games inspired by series like Monster Hunter World and Dark Souls and has recently concluded an extremely successful Kickstarter campaign for the Resident Evil 2 board game that raised over 1 million GBP earlier this year. The developer is currently focused on RuneScape and Gielinor. The company plans to launch both an essential book for tabletop RPGs and a board game.
