RuneScape developer Jagex has announced two publishing partnerships to bring RuneScape: Dragonwilds to Japan, South Korea, and South East Asia.<\/p>\n

RuneScape developer Jagex announced it would be launching RuneScape: Dragonwilds in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region in April<\/a>. Described at the time as the company’s “most significant international expansion” to date, the launch will include localisation in Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.<\/p>\n

Now, in partnership with Japanese publisher Graph, a branch of Active Gaming Media, and South Korean and South East Asia publisher H2 Interactive, RuneScape: Dragonwilds will be available in those regions, marking the first time in the company’s 25-year history that a Jagex-developed game will be available via a third-party publisher.<\/p>\n

Jagex said the deals form part of its broader RS25 strategy to use the significant anniversary as a springboard for “future growth, global expansion, franchise evolution and record investment into the future of RuneScape,” and is part of its wider plan to expand the RuneScape universe “onto a global stage following on the success of RuneScape: Dragonwilds.”<\/p>\n

“As we looked to expand RuneScape: Dragonwilds internationally, it was essential that we found partners with strong regional expertise and a deep understanding of local players and gaming culture,” said Anna Mostyn Williams, senior director of business development and partnerships.<\/p>\n

“The partnerships reflect a strong strategic and creative alignment between Jagex and both regional publishers, built around a shared belief in the long-term global potential of the RuneScape franchise and the unique appeal of RuneScape: Dragonwilds for players across APAC.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"RuneScape developer Jagex has announced two publishing partnerships to bring RuneScape: Dragonwilds to Japan, South Korea, and South…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":509284,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[85,46,125],"class_list":["post-509283","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509283","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=509283"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509283\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/509284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=509283"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=509283"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=509283"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
