Hey Everyone!

Community Update #2 has arrived on Arrakis! As usual, the changes are based on community feedback/sentiments, read on to find out more…

Conquest

Faction specific councilors with text dialogs & voiceover have been added. They will appear when launching a new conquest, during every mission, and at the end of each conquest.



The goal is to improve both the immersion and personality of each faction, and give a better narrative feel to the conquest.
A new mission, “Skirmish”, has been added.

Faction Selection

The single player faction selection screen has been improved, adding new shortcuts & making each faction more visible.

Quick Start

For experienced players that want to skip the early game, we’ve added a “quick start” option, available both in single player and multiplayer skirmishes. You start with increased resources and more map knowledge.

Multiplayer

We’ve dramatically reduced the bandwidth use in multiplayer, in order to decrease lag, especially during the endgame phase.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a crash on startup that affected new versions of the Steam Deck
• Fixed a crash when starting a lobby
