German version of popular Java MMORPG launches as Open Beta.
The German translation of RuneScape includes both the free and members areas of the game, in full, and can be found at www.runescape.de .
"We're thrilled to be launching the new German version of RuneScape, now all German speakers can enjoy RuneScape to the full." said Managing Director of Jagex Ltd, Constant Tedder. "This is the first step in creating a truly multi-language gaming community for RuneScape and we are hoping that the German RuneScape can capture the imagination of German-speaking players in the same way that the English-language version has." he added.
The German version of RuneScape is accompanied by a brand-new, comprehensive German-language website that is packed full of features, including unique news articles and active forums.
The site will serve as a hub for the German-speaking community by providing an extensive amount of information on all aspects of the game, and as the ultimate goal is to offer the German community the same features as its English counterpart, the site will soon include complete translations of the RuneScape Knowledge Base and Quest Help system.
With unlimited hours of exciting gameplay to experience, hundreds of mythical and mystical creatures to encounter and thousands of real world players to meet, the world of RuneScape is one of limitless possibility.
Consisting of both a free and members version of the game, the community of RuneScape – home to more than 5 million active players and over 950,000 subscribers - is filled with excitement and adventure. Wherever your interests lie, there will something to suit you - farming, fishing, crafting or cooking; you can even build and maintain your very own house - with more than twenty unique skills to learn and over a hundred quests to conquer.
Gamers can play RuneScape directly within a web browser via a very small and simple download, receive weekly game updates that are released simultaneously across all language versions and expand on the existing game-world and a members' version that provides players with exclusive content.
