The buzz around Denis Villeneuve's successful films has heightened anticipation for the upcoming survival MMO, Dune: Awakening. Fans won't have to wait much longer; developer Funcom has announced that the game will launch on PC on May 20. While console enthusiasts will need to hold on a bit longer, everyone can get a sneak peek with the latest gameplay trailer.
What does the trailer showcase? You'll see the iconic desert landscapes, intense base-building sessions, thrilling combat sequences, and, of course, the awe-inspiring sandworms—everything you'd expect from a game set in the Dune universe.
In Dune: Awakening, players take on the role of a prisoner sent to the harsh planet of Arrakis. The journey kicks off with an escape from captivity, leading into a perilous quest to unravel the mystery behind the vanished Fremen.
To ensure PC players are fully prepared for the launch, Funcom has already made available a benchmark tool and a character creator. These tools allow players to optimize their settings and craft their characters ahead of time, streamlining the experience when the game officially goes live.
