Spice Wars erupts on Dune

Developer Shiro Games and publisher Funcom are thrilled to announce the full release of Dune: Spice Wars, the 4X strategy game played in real time, where the grand odyssey to planetary domination can reach its epic conclusion in a single sitting. A massive update accompanies the release, adding a sixth playable faction, House Ecaz, and a long list of additional content and improvements.

The full release brings the sixth major update since Dune: Spice Wars entered Early Access, not counting several additional community updates specifically addressing player feedback. In this time, the game has exploded in size, acquiring multiplayer, Conquest Mode, House Corrino, new buildings, military, air units, regions, tutorials, quality of life additions, and so much more.

House Ecaz is a new playable faction with its own unique strengths, leveraging their mastery of art and a special approach to expanding their influence across Arrakis. With a highly trained and proud military, they are a mighty opponent on a deadly planet already teeming with the greatest powers in the universe.

Throughout Early Access, community feedback has been a key component to the development of Dune: Spice Wars. The launch update addresses several community requests, bringing improvements to Manpower, Water and Supply, Assassinations, Sietches, and Storms.

Nicolas Cannasse, CEO of Shiro Games, says: “After over three years of work we are thrilled at the opportunity to invite players to join us on Arrakis as Dune: Spice Wars launches into 1.0. Many here at Shiro Games have spent countless hours immersed in this world, be it through the books, board games, movies, or any of the other adaptations. We are very proud to have worked on this iconic series, and hope that our players enjoy their time on Arrakis!”
