Dune: Awakening is an open-world survival game set on the desert planet Arrakis. Players create a custom character and must manage thirst, maintain stillsuits, and contend with environmental hazards like sandstorms, extreme heat, and roaming sandworms. The game involves scavenging resources, crafting equipment, building shelters, and competing with other players to harvest and transport spice. As players progress, they advance through phases from basic survival to leading a guild, eventually participating in faction warfare between House Atreides and House Harkonnen. The game features single-player, and multiplayer which can be fully played in PvE with dedicated PvP zones.
In an alternate timeline where Paul Atreides was never born, Lady Jessica obeys the Bene Gesserit and bears a daughter named Ariste instead of a son. Her loyalty earns her training as a Truthsayer, and she uncovers the betrayal of Dr. Wellington Yueh before it can unfold. House Atreides survives under Duke Leto's leadership but becomes locked in a prolonged War of Assassins against House Harkonnen on the desert planet Arrakis. Meanwhile, the Fremen have vanished following a brutal purge by the Emperor's Sardaukar forces. Into this fractured world, a lone agent working undercover for the Bene Gesserit arrives on Arrakis with a singular mission: find the missing Fremen and awaken the Sleeper. The desert holds its secrets tightly, and the political machinations of the Great Houses threaten anyone caught between them.

In Dune: Imperium, you'll step into the role of one of the leaders of the Great Houses of the Imperium in a struggle to control the planet Arrakis and the invaluable Spice it provides. The game plays out in a series of ten rounds, each of which is defined by a new Conflict on the surface of the planet; some award critical resources, and some provide Victory Points that will propel you to dominance. But choose your battles wisely: spread your forces too thin, and you'll find your enemies growing too strong to oppose. Each round, you'll draw a hand of five cards from your deck, which will get stronger over the course of the game as you acquire new cards. Each card can be played in one of two ways: To send an Agent out into the Imperium to gather resources, or to Reveal at the end of the round to purchase new powerful cards. You must maintain a careful balance to get the most of the resources available to you. How will you find your path? As your game progresses, you'll vie for Influence with four factions of the Imperium: The Emperor, the economically powerful Spacing Guild, the mysterious Bene Gesserit, and the ferocious Fremen of the deep deserts. Earning Influence among the various groups helps you to earn the Victory Points you need...but will you compete with your rivals for their favor, or abandon alliances to pursue other opportunities? Many strategies are at your disposal, and many paths to victory. The cards are dealt. The choice is yours. The Imperium awaits.
