It was recently announced that the subscription costs of Jagex Ltd's RuneScape will be raised. According to the news post on the official website, all those who subscribe to the game after August 4 will have to pay a fee which will be increased by £ 0.30 in the UK and US$ 0.95 in North America.

Current subscribers shouldn't worry though since they will not be paying any more for the game than they already are. Their subscription fees will remain the same unless they let their membership lapse for more than two weeks after August 4.

Interestingly enough, this is the first price change the game has undergone since it was first launched in 2002.  So if you're not a paying member but plan to be, you might want to subscribe now to avoid the price increase.
