Dune Awakening developer Funcom has responded to the news crossplay won't be included in the game's upcoming console release, telling Eurogamer, "We know players want it. WE want it."
Dune Awakening is coming to consoles at long last, and is getting a dedicated single-player mode. Unfortunately, there'll be no crossplay between most platforms.
There have been a few decent Dune videogames over the years, but they've often been strategy-focused and limited in terms of fully immersing fans in Arrakis. Dune Awakening, however, is different from the rest. An elaborate survival MMO that's got all the hallmarks a franchise fan would want to see, it's the biggest and most social Dune game ever. However, the breadth of that multiplayer and the potential for PvP combat can be off-putting to some, so developer Funcom is keen to provide regular free trials to let folks dip their toes into the sand. The latest has just arrived.
