Dune Spice Wars Now in PC Game Pass; Flying Units Added

The strategy game Dune: Spice Wars has been added to the PC Game Pass subscription offer. On this occasion, the devs at Shiro Games released another update for the game. The patch is titled Air & Sand and it brings many new features.

3. The system governing the behavior of projectiles has also been improved.
4. The game world was enriched with an additional enemy faction, led by AI in the form of Renegades, who will take control of neutral villages.
5. Several new buildings have also been added, including barracks that allow for modification of equipment of combat units.
6. AI on all difficulty levels has been improved.
7. Multiplayer has been improved - limits on the use of pause have been lifted, and players who leave the game are replaced by AI.
8. The list of single player modes has been enriched with a Solo vs AI Kan variant.
9. There were also many fixes for bugs, interface and gameplay balance.

Recall that Dune: Spice Wars debuted in early access in April, this year. The game is available exclusively on PC. Version 1.0 is expected to be released in 2023.
