Five million people have downloaded Old School RuneScape on iOS and Android, Jagex has announced.
It bodes well for the launch of the main RuneScape MMO on smartphones, which is currently in the testing phase.
Old-School RuneScape was launched in 2013 and was a re-release of the 2007 version of the game. It has since received minor engine improvements and tweaks, and is targeted at older fans of the MMO who prefer the original experience over the more modern iteration.
The 18 year-old MMO also reported its highest ever paid membership total over Christmas, beating a record set in 2008.
"2018 was a fantastic year for our RuneScape games, which have truly come of age," said Jagex boss Phil Mansell.
