'Dune' and its Franchise Now

Many games in the early 90s presented the world with a massive cult following and support, and it also applies to the famous novel title by Frank Herbert, which has had several games before. There were doubts regarding the upcoming games that would continue the "Dune" franchise, as now it has an opportunity to capitalize on gaming titles, apart from its movie trilogy. 

Previous releases of "Dune" stopped as the hype and following behind it also ceased, as there is not much progression with its games and some did not meet expectations during the time. However, there were still some hopeful people that focus on "Dune," especially those who saw the "Star Citizen" game footage that somehow resonated with the famous title. 

Now, the new face of "Dune" brings a different approach to the way game makers present its plot and activities. The new multiplayer mode will be the first that a "Dune" game will experience, allowing people to join the strategy game and experience the world together with their friends and teammate. 

"Dune: Spice Wars" is available for early access now via Steam's platform.
