In honoring the past while taking a look towards the future, like smartphones and Steam platforms RuneScape could be set for one of the most exciting times of its twenty-year journey. It will be fascinating to find out whether Jagex will not only rekindle the old or lost fanbase and attract new players with OSRS Accounts to the wonderful RPG world that the creators have spent so much time developing and expanding.

A classic MMORPG RuneScape is developed since 2001. having gone through numerous variations over that time. The year of 2017 was a success for the game due in part to the launch of RuneScape 3. Desperate Measures update, but the developer Jagex also enjoyed success with its charitable endeavors. Jagex announced on Thursday on Twitter that it had raised PS445.778 for mental health charity in 2020. This is less than $609.500.

The game's developer is involved in a number of charitable initiatives, and the CEO Phil Mansell said focus on "supporting the well-being and mental wellbeing of children and teens" on the Jagex's website. The webpage for Jagex charitable initiatives provides connects to several different organisations which RuneScape players can donate to such as CPSL Mind, The Prince's Trust along with Rise Above The Disorder (RAD).

In addition to these three regular charities, Jagex raised money for other groups in 2020. According to its latest Tweet: Special Effect, that focuses on helping players with physical disabilities; Blueprint for All, which seeks at helping "create an open society" as well as the United Kingdom's National Videogame Museum, which is an "cultural center" to highlight video games and to educate gamers and creators. This announcement comes at close of the holiday season that was full of charitable initiatives including Tiltify working in partnership with Twitch streamers.

Although the biggest focus is for the Jagex's charity endeavors The year also saw more interest in its most popular MMO RuneScape more than that of the desperate Measures update. The game was officially launched via Steam in October of 2020. Also, Jagex has teamed up in partnership with Amazon Prime to offer players incentives for linking the accounts of their account to Prime Gaming.

The Prime benefits are available to players who are playing the latest RuneScape 3 build as well as players who play Old School RuneScape, a version of the game that was based on Java that was available before RuneScape 3. In addition, with Old School RuneScape being available on mobile devices and getting its own updates independently The game set a record for concurrent players in November of 2020. with more than 173.000 players playing at the same time.

The fact that this player base has also supported charitable initiatives is pleasing to see, particularly since the coronavirus outbreak and global shutdowns through 2020 will likely increase the need for mental health care and education. The future will reveal whether Jagex surpasses this amount of donations by 2021. However, in the meantime it is not uncommon for developers to be that are raising money for charitable causes. For instance, the Bungie Game2Give campaign raised more than $300.000 to benefit the Bungie Foundation with OSRS Accounts For Sale as well as the Children's Miracle Network in just one day last month.

The long-running British MMORPG RuneScape has been confirmed recently to get its debut through the Steam store later in the season. It's open to players who don't have Steam accounts and will be able to play with mobile and non-Steam gamers.
