🏜️ Dune: Awakening – First Look Gameplay | Survival MMO Meets Epic Sci-Fi Lore
Welcome to my first look gameplay of Dune: Awakening, the highly anticipated open-world survival MMO set in the legendary universe of Frank Herbert’s Dune. In this video, I dive deep into the harsh deserts of Arrakis, explore early gameplay mechanics, and share my honest first impressions of what could be one of the most ambitious survival games ever made.
Whether you’re a die-hard Dune fan or a survival MMO enthusiast, you’re going to want to see what Funcom is cooking up with this title.
🧬 What is Dune: Awakening?
Dune: Awakening is an upcoming multiplayer survival MMO developed by Funcom, the team behind Conan Exiles. Set on the deadly desert planet of Arrakis, this game blends the brutal challenges of survival gaming with the expansive scale and political intrigue of the Dune universe.
Inspired by Frank Herbert’s original novels, as well as the latest Dune films by Denis Villeneuve, Dune: Awakening places you in a massively multiplayer world where players battle the environment, rival factions, and even shifting sands just to stay alive.
You’ll start with nothing and have to build your way up — harvesting spice, crafting gear, constructing shelters, and eventually aligning with powerful houses and guilds. Unlike typical MMOs, the survival element here is intense — every resource counts, and the environment itself (like the dreaded Shai-Hulud, the sandworms) is a constant threat.
This isn’t just another survival game — it’s a living world, where the economy, politics, and ecology are shaped by the players themselves.
📖 A Brief Look at the Dune Lore
The Dune universe is one of the deepest, most influential science fiction worlds ever created. It centers around the desert planet of Arrakis, the only known source of melange, or “spice” — a substance that grants heightened awareness, extended life, and is vital for space travel.
Control over spice means control over the universe, which is why Great Houses, Fremen tribes, and corporate powers all fight for dominance over Arrakis. In the books, we follow the journey of Paul Atreides, whose story of betrayal, prophecy, and rebellion echoes across generations.
Dune: Awakening takes place in an alternate timeline, allowing players to write their own stories within this rich world. You won’t just be a spectator to the lore — you’ll live it, shape it, and survive it.
