In many ways, the ‘Classic’ trend began with Old School RuneScape. Stripping away all of the game’s shiny new bells and whistles and harkening back to the good ol’ days of chopping down trees and leveling up professions, Jagex kickstarted one of the most prolific trends in online videogames. World of Warcraft Classic appeared in 2019, quickly becoming the premier Warcraft experience in the wake of the MMO’s infamous Shadowlands expansion, and the somewhat mediocre Dragonflight that came after it. Since then Blizzard has capitalized on the ‘Classic’ idea, bringing it to Overwatch in 2025, while Epic had released Fortnite OG just a year earlier. Now, rumor has it that Riot is planning League of Legends Classic, and I’m not sure how I feel about it.
