" __ storytelling grants players the opportunity to embark upon an adventure across Arrakis that's familiar but also unique. While Funcom's intention to include more characters from the Dune stories in its game is a novel way to let players interact with and learn more about those who didn't survive long in the books or films - with Funcom stating that more characters will appear over time as the game continues to grow - it's yet to be seen how fans of the Dune books and movies will react to such drastic changes.<br><br><br>Though it eschews the main narrative of Herbert's beloved Dune series, the game still draws great inspiration from the worldbuilding of both the book series and the recent films of Denis Villeneuve.
