The upcoming survival MMO, Dune: Awakening, based on Denis Villeneuve's successful film adaptations, is generating significant buzz. Developer Funcom has confirmed a May 20th PC release date, with console versions to follow. A new gameplay trailer showcases the game's core elements.
The trailer highlights the harsh desert environment, base-building mechanics, intense combat encounters, and the iconic sandworms—all quintessential Dune elements.
Players take on the role of a prisoner on Arrakis, beginning their journey with an escape and a perilous quest to unravel the mystery surrounding a missing Fremen tribe.
To prepare for launch, Funcom has proactively released a benchmark tool and a character creator. This pre-release access enables players to optimize their game settings and craft their characters ahead of time, streamlining the launch experience.
