A Chinese mining company is set to buy Runescape developer Jagex for $300m.
Shandong Hongda Mining Co Ltd, a ferrous metal mining firm that produces iron powder, copper powder and iron ore, picked up the British game company.
Jagex told Eurogamer it had yet to sign on the dotted line, but the deal looks very likely to go through.
Jagex has already entered into a non-exclusive, non-binding arrangement for a potential acquisition.
Jagex said its planned launches for “NXT,” “Zeah,” “Chronicle: RuneScape Legends,” “God Wars Dungeon 2,” and “RuneScape: Idle Adventures” remained on track.
