Funcom has begun revealing details of the Chapter 3 update coming soon to survival MMO Dune: Awakening, and it sounds like a pretty substantial one. Speaking with game director Joel Bylos last week, he told me the update is aimed at giving endgame players more to do, and will include a 'completely revamped Landsraad system,' a new 'specialization experience system,' plus eight new locations to visit on the overland map, plus a handful of new testing stations. Sounds spicy.
Before you envision yourself building new bases at far flung locations, the new maps are not "anywhere near the size of like the Hagga Basin," Bylos said. "They're smaller one-kilometer-by-one-kilometer maps in size, and they contain very specific activities."
