New Dune RTS!

ríomhaire

Nothing to do with Westwood, EA or Petroglyph. Some small studio called Rockstorm doing it in Unreal Engine 3. Somehow they also seem to have the rights to include house Ordos which I figured would belong to EA. Seems to be very early days. All they have so far is a logo and some unit art. Link.

So far the only side that have any real info is Harkonnen. I really hope this doesn't collapse or suck.

Edit: Actually, it's probably doomed. From their FAQ.

Q: “You guys don’t have the rights to this, Electronic Arts / Frank Herbert’s Estate / Dino DeLaurentis / Shai Hulud are going to eat you alive! You’re doomed! Dooooomed!”

A: Thanks for the support.

In all seriousness we are aware of the legal issues and we’re currently not making ANY money from this project and go to great lengths to assert the ownership of the rights holders whenever possible in the hopes that we can continue to develop this project out of our great respect and admiration for the source material.

That being said, we would welcome the opportunity to take this project commercial and develop it officially, so if you’re a legal representative from EA and you’re reading this…let’s talk.
