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 key features.
The trailer highlights the harsh Arrakis desert environment, base-building mechanics, intense combat encounters, and the iconic sandworms—all essential elements of a true Dune experience.
Players assume the role of a prisoner on Arrakis, beginning their journey by escaping captivity and embarking on a perilous quest to unravel the mystery surrounding the vanished Fremen.
To prepare PC players for launch, Funcom has proactively released a benchmark tool and a character creator. This allows for pre-launch optimization of game settings and character design, ensuring a smoother launch experience.
