Dune: Awakening has already dumped one of franchise’s most important rules

In Dune, Sandwalking is essential for traversing the sandy dunes to avoid being detected by the giant sandworms, the Shai-Hulud. Although it’s crucial to the lore, it will not be appearing in the upcoming game Dune: Awakening because it looked ridiculous and slow.

During the Dune: Awakening Direct on March 4, fans got their first look at the MMO’s desert-filled gameplay. While there will be much for players to explore, one aspect they won’t have to endure is Sandwalking. As reported by PC Gamer, the developers behind Dune: Awakening tried to implement this, but after much experimentation, they decided to scrap it.
