"Dune Awakening Trailer Reveals Arrakis' Marvels"

Funcom has just released an enthralling new trailer for Dune: Awakening, their highly anticipated multiplayer survival game set in the iconic universe of Frank Herbert's "Dune." The latest footage highlights the vast, treacherous deserts of Arrakis, giving players a tantalizing peek at the myriad challenges and opportunities that lie in wait.

In Dune: Awakening, exploration is not just a part of the game; it's essential for survival. Players will need to skillfully navigate the perilous dunes to collect vital resources needed for crafting everything from shelters to combat-ready ornithopters. To streamline resource gathering, players can employ a scanner, and by deploying probes on high ground, they'll uncover crucial points of interest on the map.

These points of interest vary from crashed spacecraft to abandoned outposts. Getting to these locations often demands creativity and resourcefulness, with tools like grappling hooks, power belts, and specialized gear becoming indispensable. All equipment can be enhanced at your base with modular components, ensuring players are well-equipped to face the dangers that Arrakis presents.

The early access launch of Dune: Awakening is slated for May 20, and it will be available exclusively on PC. Console enthusiasts won't have to wait too long, as versions for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are planned for a subsequent release. In the lead-up to the early access launch, players can start customizing their characters and testing their system's performance with the benchmark tool available on Steam.

Make sure to mark your calendars: Dune: Awakening will enter early access on Steam on May 20. The game's Steam page already offers a character editor and performance-testing tools. The full release will eventually extend the experience to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, broadening the adventure to even more players.
