Dune: Awakening, the highly anticipated survival MMO based on the Dune universe, promises to offer players a vast and immersive experience on the planet Arrakis. Published with comments from Funcom’s creative director Joel Bylos. Dune: Awakening new gameplay trailerdetails the game’s base-building and tax mechanics.
Dune: Awakening New Gameplay Trailer: Deep Dive into Base Building and Tax System
In Dune: Awakening, players begin to create their own place by gathering resources, claiming land, and building bases to survive the harsh conditions of Arrakis. Joel Bylos explains how players can assert their rights to Arrakis by establishing a sub-fief console and owing taxes to the Emperor. Base building is inspired by Conan Exiles, allowing players to start small and grow over time. Craftsmanship and expertise are critical for players to develop their presence on Arrakis.
Players’ influence on Arrakis expands through features such as staking rods, which are used to expand the buildable area. This feature adds a strategic dimension to the game and encourages players to carefully plan their expansion and resource usage. There is also a creative planning system that allows players to multiply their bases in the more dangerous areas of Arrakis. This adds an additional challenge to the survival experience, requiring players to protect themselves against the planet’s devastating storms.
Game’s Unique Creativity Opportunities
Joel Bylos states that the appeal of survival games comes from players’ ability to create something unique in the game world. Dune: Awakening reinforces this sentiment by allowing players to establish and maintain their home on Arrakis, stake claims, and engage in territorial and resource-based rivalries. The game satisfies players’ need for creativity and ownership, while also providing the opportunity to explore Dune’s rich mythology.
The latest gameplay teaser and information from Dune: Awakening’s development team highlights the game’s immersive experience and combination of survival, cooperative gameplay and story-driven elements. The game awaits players ready to explore the vast deserts of Arrakis, with the promise of a survival MMO beyond the norm.
