Shownotes Transcript
On this mid-week edition of DUNE TALK, we're joined by special guests Scott Martins and Paul Dennen, from Dire Wolf, to discuss all things Dune: Imperium! With a digital adaptation now in early access on Steam and launch of Dune: Imperium - Uprising—a brand-new standalone release—for tabletop, the game is more accessible than it's ever been. Marcus and Mark have questions on design, gameplay, and lore. How was it like working on a tie-in to Denis Villeneuve's Dune movies? What can we expect, in the future, for the game's community and competitive play?
