Funcom is already working on several new Dune games set on the desert planet of Arrakis, with their first real-time strategy game already seeing a beta test.
Most fans are more excited about the unannounced Dune project from Funcom, which has been quietly announced through a recruitment post on the company website.
More recently, though, fans got excited about some new concept art from Adre Pires on ArtStation. The images are tagged “fan art,” but Pires is the team’s lead hair artist for the project.
The mock-up is of a Harkonnen – giving off the exact vibes we expect him to.
A real-time strategy game is all well and good, but it’s not the Dune game that players are longing to see.
Thankfully, Funcom have already confirmed that they’re working on several different video games set in the universe, including a survival game.
Arrakis is a perfect setting for hardcore survival. The Conan Exiles team is already working on a survival Dune game, and the company is actively recruiting more people to join the project.
