Funcom has given us our best glimpse yet at the incredible-looking Dune: Awakening during Gamescom's Opening Night Live. A survival MMO set on the most dangerous planet in the galaxy, it launches on PC in early 2025, cautiously sandwalking to PS5 sometime afterwards.
In the reveal, we see some low-level gameplay, showing the various ways players can approach an outpost. Your choice of weaponry and abilities will determine your particular playstyle, and we see a Swordmaster engage in melee while deflecting ranged attacks with a personal shield. Hunter-seeker drones and jetpacks are on display, and it all honestly looks a little too good to be true, potentially somewhere for disaffected Destiny fans to land.
The base building and survival aspects look incredibly impressive, as well. Enterprising players can sell their creations' blueprints to others, who can then easily construct a specific structure. Add a personal ornithopter for aerial transportation and an in-game radio, and we are all ready to ship off to Arrakis.
