Frank Herbert's 1965 novel, Dune , was a game-changer for science fiction. Due to its immense popularity and sustained place in the mainstream of science fiction, it's seen many adaptations. From David Lynch's Dune Awakening Secrets to the original 1992 video game, Herbert's world has long been a playground for creatives.

Surprisingly, Emperor: Battle For Dune features asymmetric factions that manage to remain thematically in line with Herbert's sci-fi world. Furthermore, Emperor: Battle For Dune also includes small details such as laser weapons reacting poorly when used against enemies with shields, making this a shockingly faithful adaptation.
