Earlier this year, Final Fantasy XIV received a series of Guinness World Records, including one for “most original pieces of music in a video game” for its then-384 tracks. This award didn’t sit right with the devs or community over at RuneScape, who subsequently and successfully petitioned that their game with its nearly 1,200 music tracks receive the nod instead.
In addition to grabbing the “most music” record, RuneScape has also set two other world records as recognized by Guinness: most users in an MMO video game (254,994,744) and most prolifically updated MMORPG video game (with 1,014 updates to date).
RuneScape has been enjoying a streak of positive publicity with its recent announcement of a mobile edition and its popularity as a streamed title over at Twitch.
