RuneScape 2 was officially released for both members and nonmembers on 29 March 2004. Within the last few weeks before RuneScape 2 was officially released, Jagex opened the RuneScape 2 beta for nonmembers so that any other existing glitches would sure to be found and submitted to Jagex because the majority of RuneScape players were nonmembers. At the time of RuneScape 2 Beta, a lengthy list of fixed glitches could be found on the front page of the RuneScape website regularly. The beta was mainly for helping Jagex find bugs and errors in RuneScape 2 and Jagex persuaded the members testing RuneScape 2 to send bug reports of any glitches they came across. In this beta version, players began with no items and Jagex warned that any items gained would be lost when RuneScape 2 was officially released. On 1 December 2003, Jagex released a beta version of RuneScape 2 that was only accessible to RuneScape members. Update:A preview is sneaked (18 October 2002).This next version of RuneScape is known as RuneScape 2. Instead of gradually updating the game engine of RuneScape Classic, Jagex re-wrote the entire game engine and planned to release it as its own version of RuneScape, separate from RuneScape Classic. In 2013, Jagex relaunched an archived version of RuneScape 2 from 2007, calling it Old School Runescape.Īs RuneScape Classic became older, Jagex felt that the graphics and game engine were becoming outdated and that they could greatly improve it. Because of this, RuneScape 2 was much more vast in comparison to RuneScape Classic and featured a multitude of new content such as new skills, minigames and quests. Since the release of RuneScape 2, RuneScape Classic has not been updated and has not been given new content as Jagex has devoted their time to focus on RuneScape 2 which they typically updated once per week. However, the change was big enough that Jagex opened a beta version of RuneScape 2 before it was officially released. Aside from the new game engine, RuneScape 2 generally had the same elements and features as RuneScape Classic prior to the release. Jagex (the makers of RuneScape) decided to do this because the developers wanted to completely re-write the game engine. RuneScape 2 was released as a separate version of RuneScape that was its own individual game and not connected to RuneScape Classic (aside from certain aspects). RuneScape 2 (now known as just RuneScape and often abbreviated as RS2) was the successor to RuneScape Classic. For detailed information, visit the RuneScape Wiki.
