Funcom has just released an enthralling new trailer for Dune: Awakening, their highly anticipated multiplayer survival game set within the iconic "Dune" universe crafted by Frank Herbert. The trailer immerses viewers in the vast and treacherous deserts of Arrakis, highlighting the myriad challenges and opportunities that players will encounter in this expansive world.
In Dune: Awakening, survival hinges on exploration. Players are tasked with traversing the hazardous dunes to collect vital resources necessary for constructing shelters and vehicles, including combat-ready ornithopters. To streamline the search for resources, players can employ a scanner, and by placing probes on high ground, they can uncover key points of interest across the map.
These points of interest include everything from crashed spacecraft to deserted outposts. Accessing these locations often demands creativity, utilizing tools such as grappling hooks, power belts, and specialized equipment. All gear can be enhanced at the player's base with modular components, ensuring readiness against the myriad threats of Arrakis.
The early access launch of Dune: Awakening is scheduled for May 20, available exclusively on PC. Console versions for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S will be released subsequently. In preparation, players can now create their characters and assess their system's performance using the benchmark tool available on Steam.
Don't miss out—mark your calendars for the early access debut of Dune: Awakening on Steam on May 20. The game's Steam page already offers a character editor and performance-testing tools. The full release will extend the experience to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, bringing the rich world of Dune to even more players.
