Emperor: Battle for Dune is a real-time strategy video game based on the universe created in Frank Herbert's novels and David Lynch's 1984 movie. It serves as a sequel to the early '90s game Dune II, which is considered the grandfather of RTS games. Set on Arrakis, players take control of one of three military factions battling for control over its resources. Each faction has unique units, weapons, and strategies that will be used in their fight for domination over this desert planet.
