The film triggered the "Dune" fanbase back to prominence, and there are limited game adaptations in the present to get it on the latest platforms.
Nevertheless, the franchise's fame is a massive indication that games will soon come, mainly as it would depend on the coming films from Denis Villeneuve, the latest movie director.
There was a recent game that saw its remaster to a different title but still builds on a discontinued project from the early 2000s. The game is a "Dune" franchise title for the Game Boy but is now a different project that is also releasing on a new platform.
This Dune game is now known as "Elland: The Crystal Wars," with its base game and creation from the franchise.
Other Dune titles for the modern gaming consoles have limited news on creating one for the franchise, despite the rising demand for it.
The good thing is that several titles are coming with the "Dune" experience for all, and one is a tabletop strategy board game that aims to deliver on the "War for Arrakis," a known sand territory in the novel. It will bring different elements and entities that provide the world with the latest there is to the title with CMON's Kickstarter.
