Future of Jagex:
    So here what to expect in the future of  big releases from Jagex.
 Mechscape:
    A new game, Mechscape, will be released (unknown release date). This new game started out as a rumor but it is verified that Mechscape will be released. This game will be a sci-fi type game and will have a Free-to-Play and Members Only version just like Runescape. The game has been in development for over 4 years so expect something great.

Runescape Classic Cheat Servers:
    Mod MMG has announced that Runescape Classic Cheat Servers will be released in the future.  They will be exactly the same as Runescape Classic but players will be allowed to spawn items and advanced their levels to whatever they want. The current Runescape Classic Servers (non-cheating ones) are still going to be available to players from Runescape Classic.  It has be announced that the RSC cheat servers will not have updates.
