Dune: Half Two, the sequel to Denis Villeneuve’s 2021 sci-fi epic, is sort of upon us. Within the lead-up to the movie’s extremely anticipated launch on March 1, Microsoft and Xbox Recreation Studios introduced the arrival of Paul Atreides’ Ornithopter and the desert plains of Arrakis in Microsoft Flight Simulator in a free growth.
The Ornithopter is to the universe of Dune what the X-Wing and TIE Fighter are to Star Wars: an iconic work of speculative engineering with a particular silhouette and dazzling mid-flight capabilities. In line with an announcement by Microsoft Flight Simulator head Jorg Neumann, gamers will be capable of pilot the Royal Atreides Ornithopter by way of three tutorials (take-off, touchdown, and freefall) earlier than taking part in 5 time-trial actions and a rescue mission to avoid wasting their flight teacher from an oncoming sandstorm.
It’s solely the newest in a collection of online game tie-ins within the weeks main as much as Dune: Half Two’s launch. Again in December, Sledgehammer Video games added Paul Atreides and Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen to Name of Obligation: Fashionable Warfare 3.
