THE RUNESCAPE DEVELOPER is one of the UK’s largest studios, and has a big year ahead of it as it looks to broaden its portfolio with upcoming browser-based MMO Transformers Universe (pictured). Since changing direction, the game is said to be more of combat-focused MOBA. Expected to release during


2014, Jagex will hope the title can experience similar success to RuneScape, which is still going strong after its release more than ten years ago. More recently, it celebrated its 200 millionth registered user and has steadily been bringing Runescape to emerging gaming markets, including Brazil.

JONATHAN BLOW


BEST KNOWN FOR his work on platform and puzzle game Braid, in which players can manipulate time, Jonathan Blow has been hard at work with the team at Number None on PlayStaion 4 puzzle-exploration game The Witness (pictured). The title has been heavily


pushed by Sony, which has used the title, and designer himself, as a showcase to developers just how seriously it is taking the indie sector on its new generation console. Onlookers will be keen to see how Blow follows up on the success of Braidwith his latest artistically-stylised title – a key exclusive for Sony’s PS4 console.
