RuneScape 4 is Real

Описание: RuneScape 4 is REAL! Jagex has officially announced a brand new RuneScape MMO. In this video, I break down everything we know so far, what's still a mystery, and what I think it means for players.

Announced at RuneFest 2026, RS4 is a new MMORPG built in Unreal Engine that will sit alongside RuneScape 3, Old School RuneScape, and Dragonwilds. It's still a few years away, so I separate what Jagex has confirmed from what I'm guessing.
