"Dune: Awakening Devs Navigate Religious Sensitivities and Lore Integrity in New Gameplay Trailer"

Funcom clarifies that their upcoming survival game Dune: Awakening will not involve players leading a holy war or playing a major role as a messiah, despite the integral role of religion in the Dune universe. The statement aims to keep the game apolitical, but it's clear that the focus is on avoiding controversial discussions about the game. With no official release date yet, the game promises survival challenges on Arrakis without the sandworm-riding aspect.
