Conan Exiles developer Funcom has signed a deal to make new games set in Frank Herbert’s Dune universe.
According to Funcom’s investor announcement, the deal – a partnership with Legendary Studios, a division of Legendary Entertainment, which owns the movie and television rights to Dune – will last six years, and is expected to result in the release of “at least” three new titles across PC and consoles.
Funcom hasn’t offered specifics for the majority of titles in the works, but does say that one is an open-world multiplayer game scheduled to enter pre-production at its Oslo studio this year. That suggests something similar to Conan Exiles, just with big worms instead of big dongs.
