Lyrical Animation is set to bring the legendary world of RuneScape to the big screen in a brand-new animated series, marking an exciting new chapter for the iconic MMO.
The ambitious project is the result of a major collaboration between Lyrical Animation, creator Charlie “MoistCr1TiKaL” White, and the game developer Jagex.
