Guide troops, establish refineries, balance resources, and deal with your fellow spice fielders by fair means… or foul.
Announced and released in the aftermath of Denis Villeneuve’s epic live-action movie,Dune: Spice Warsreturns the series to its strategic gameplay roots, as popularized by the extremely popular and genre-defining PC/Amiga releaseDune II: Battle for Arrakis(1992). The new game received a major update this past summer, adding dedicated multiplayer servers, peer-to-peer support, new regions, events, and factions.
