Dune Awakening gets a Paul Atreides trailer at Summer Game Fest

Funcom showed off a new trailer of Paul Atreides musing for Dune Awakening, a new open world MMO coming.

The trailer featured the hero Paul Atreides, who sets off a galaxy-wide jihad in the Dune novels, wondering what would happen if he was never born. It’s an interesting future where House Atreides is never destroyed by the Emperor or House Harkonnen.
