The anticipation for the upcoming survival MMO, *Dune: Awakening*, has surged thanks to the success of Denis Villeneuve's films. Developer Funcom has set the official PC release date for May 20, with console versions slated to follow. In the meantime, fans can dive into the latest gameplay trailer, which showcases the quintessential elements of a Dune game. Expect to see sweeping desert landscapes, intricate base-building mechanics, intense combat sequences, and, of course, the iconic sandworms.
In *Dune: Awakening*, players take on the role of a protagonist who starts as a prisoner on the planet Arrakis. The narrative kicks off with a daring escape from captivity, leading to an adventurous quest to unravel the mystery behind the vanished Fremen.
To prepare PC players for the launch, Funcom has thoughtfully provided a benchmark tool and a character creator. These tools enable players to optimize their game settings and design their characters ahead of time, ensuring a smooth and personalized gaming experience when *Dune: Awakening* officially hits the shelves.
