Funcom has officially announced a new addition to the Dune universe with Dune Awakening, a survival video game that immerses players in the harsh and sprawling world of Arrakis. This exciting development offers a fresh narrative that diverges from the existing stories within the beloved franchise.
Exploration and Survival on Arrakis
Set in the unforgiving desert landscape of Arrakis, players are invited to explore the sweeping dunes and unique ecosystems while surviving the trials posed by this environment. Dune Awakening is crafted to provide a large-scale survival experience, where understanding the terrain and resource management will be key to thriving in the beautifully rendered world.
Innovative Character Creation Tool
An integral part of Dune Awakening's pre-launch experience is the innovative character creator and benchmark tool that Funcom has released. Available for free, this tool provides players with the opportunity to design and customize their unique avatars prior to the full game's release. This feature not only engages gamers ahead of time but also prepares systems to handle the game’s demands, ensuring a smooth introduction into the vast universe of Arrakis on May 20.
Pre-Orders Now Open
As excitement builds towards the game’s launch, Funcom has opened pre-orders for Dune Awakening, priced at $49.99. This early ticket to a new adventure on Arrakis offers players a reserved spot in this expanding digital frontier of survival and exploration.
With its launch date looming, Dune Awakening is anticipated to not only attract die-hard fans of the franchise but also gather an enthusiastic community of gamers eager to explore the challenges and narratives within this new iteration of the Dune universe.
