Last week somebody seemingly "leaked" the new Jagex unannounced game to some gaming websites, claiming it is some RPG very similar to RS3 and most players referred it to be Runescape Remastered or Next Gen. However, it didn't take long before Jagex's very own Mod Orion completely debunked the claim and blatantly pointed out the "leaked" images were from a project canned years ago:

"Aye this is all Aftermath UI wireframes/mock - project was canned several years ago due to market shifts and constantly changing demands/identity.
Eldergate name also no longer relevant, just a pre-emptive trademark, nothing more.

For those who still think Jagex is working on a NEW game to replace RS3, mind it is called Runescape Remastered, Next Gen, Aftermath, etc, the bad news for you is official verdict coming out from Jagex can't be any clearer - there is NONE. The original project was canned years ago due to market shifts and constantly changing demands.
Jagex has pivoted to remastering the current version of RS3 rather, since years ago when they canned the old Runescape Remastered and Eldergate initatives.
The good news is RS3 has been and will continue to be updated and remastered frequently.
BTW, they have just released the REMASTERED Helm of Neitisnot yesterday. Be prepared to see more RS3 remastering coming out soon in this 22 year old RS3 most players in the gaming industry know of. Good news!
