Developer Jagex has confirmed layoffs and a pause on development of Project Zanaris custom server feature for Old School RuneScape.
Layoffs were made due to company restructuring, with a focus on RuneScape games and community growth, impacting non-game dev and non-player facing areas.
Resources from Project Zanaris have been reallocated to ongoing improvements and new initiatives for Old School RuneScape, such as infrastructure enhancements and customization options.
Recent updates include an AFK timer and UI enhancements for OSRS, and adjustments to gameplay elements like the Abyssal Sire boss fight in both Old School RuneScape and RuneScape.
