Levelling up these skills allows you to undertake new challenges, defeat powerful boss monsters, and go on truly-epic quests. These days, players can grind out dozens of skills, ranging from Hunter to Woodcutting, and from Ranged to Magic. Over time, though, the games have both received their own dedicated clients. On the off chance that you've never heard of either OSRS or "Normal" RuneScape before, here's a quick breakdown: it's a relatively old-fashioned, click-to-move MMO that started as a browser-based experience. This old school classic could get a new lease on life, with the potential for tens of thousands of new users to jump in and perhaps even snag the game's $11/month subscription. With its impending Steam launch, however, those numbers could skyrocket.
Though OSRS did reach an astounding 170,000 players in 2020 during the game's second major "League" event, it averaged a much lower (but still significant, for what the game is) 60-80,000 concurrent players in the months following. This is a massive milestone for the game's development studio, Jagex. However, that could change soon: following in the footsteps of its more modern counterpart (RuneScape 3), Old School RuneScape is coming to Steam next month. Something to look forward to: RuneScape is one of the oldest MMORPGs out there, but its hardcore, grindy gameplay has thus far only appealed to a relatively niche audience - at least, compared to other MMOs like World of Warcraft.
