RuneScape Breaks the Million Mark

Like a big smiling jug of red flavored sugar water, Runescape has smashed through the 1 million subscriber wall.

RuneScape membership is $5 a month and grants access to exclusive content. In regards to hitting the 1 million mark, Constant Tedder, Managing Director of developer Jagex Ltd., had the following to say.

It is a huge acknowledgement from our global gaming community that being presented with new adventures and challenges in a rapidly evolving world are what gamers want in a multiplayer online game.

RuneScape is a browser-based MMOG with a strong English speaking core audience of 14- to 24-year-olds. Jagex Ltd., based out of Cambridge, England, recently released a German beta of RuneScape with the same features that have made the English-language version so widely popular.
