“The best question. I would love to know. I don’t know. We don’t want to ship it till it’s ready. I don’t know how many of you have played Conan Exiles. We have a reputation for interesting ideas and some jank. I would prefer to get rid of the jank. I’d like to launch a game that’s really polished from Funcom. We’ve grown as a company. I think we can deliver a really polished survival experience. It’s a big IP. It’s really hot right now. When we took the IP in 2019, we just knew there’d be a film.”
Bylos added that they feel somepressure because of the moviesand hope to fulfill the fantasies of all the fans with the video game.Dune: Awakening, being a survival MMO, will force fans to engage in combats with other players set in the Dune universe. The video game has created a lot of anticipation among the fans but as of now, there is no announcement regarding the game’s release date.
