Dune Game Reveals First Look At Open-World Survival Action
The first shots of the untitled Dune survival action game from developer Nukklear and publisher Funcom have gone live online, thanks to the rollout of a new website. Nukklear and Funcom unveiled the Dune survival game in late 2021, approximately two years after the Norwegian publisher acquired the rights to the world-famous sci-fi property. Given Funcom's pedigree with other licensed properties such as Conan the Barbarian, it seems as though Dune is in good hands.
This doesn't constitute the developer/publisher's first go at the Dune brand, either. Funcom also serves as the publisher on Shiro Games' Dune: Spice Wars, a real-time strategy experience with 4X elements. Notably, Spice Wars entered Steam Early Access a couple of weeks ago on April 26, inviting PC players to take part in controlling a faction and dominating the planet of Arrakis in the much-beloved Frank Herbert universe. It's clear that Funcom's plans for the future of Dune-branded interactive experiences stretch far and wide. And the well-received Dune: Spice Wars marks only the beginning of said plans.

Most interesting, however, are the few pieces of art that also occupy the all-new webpage. One conceptual art piece, shown in the featured image, depicts a ship in a desert hangar. Another image
