Runescape takes the Hearthstone route with spin-off card game
Published on
Developer Jagex is planning a new game set in the Runescape universe.
Chronicle: Runescape Legends is a collectable card game for PC, tablets and mobiles, and is due for release next year.
"Played out within the pages of a living book the game focuses on quest building, allowing players to craft their own miniature RPGs against enemies, including classic RuneScape boss monsters, before entering into tense PvP combat," says the press release.
The game made its debut at RuneFest this weekend.
Jagex looks to be following the success of Blizzard's card game Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, itself a spin-off of MMO World of Warcraft
