As Frank Herbert famously wrote, fear is the mind-killer, but after decades of waiting, gamers can finally put their fears aside as there’s a new Dune game on the horizon.

More broadly, these fanbases are created based on your generation and what part of the series you gravitated to first for whatever reason....

“The way we started in automotive was partly by design, and partly because our customers told us to,” Tim McDonough, Unity’s head of automotive, told Digital Trends. The company shifted from building games to “building the tools for building games,” he said, but soon noticed that automakers were interested in using those same tools for other things.
