Funcom and Nukklear GmbH have released a new Dune: Awakening trailer, previewing the upcoming open-world action survival MMO game currently in development.
The trailer gives viewers a look at different areas of the iconic planet Arrakis, set to a voiceover that describes the harsh environments of Arrakis, as well as what it takes to make it there. The video also dives a bit into what combat, building, and traversal will look like, and even teases dogfights of sorts in an ornithopter.
