A new book is coming to Dune: Adventures in The Imperium. Unlike prior supplements like Masters of Dune or Power and Pawns, this book parallels the events of the upcoming Denis Villeneuve feature film Dune: Part Two. That book is called Dune: Fall of the Imperium.
The Dune: Fall of the Imperium announcement
According to an official press release, Dune: Fall of the Imperium is a 144-page campaign sourcebook for the Dune: Adventures in the Imperium TTRPG.
In this campaign, players will face a deadly balancing act as they navigate their House through webs of treachery and deceit. Galactic-wide events spiral into war across a million worlds, forcing players to choose a side. Ally with the Fremen and suffer the Emperor's wrath, or remain loyal and face the onslaught of their terrible war?
These events draw parallels to the upcoming feature film Dune: Part Two.
An adaptation of the second half of the first Dune novel, the movie follows Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) as he falls into the role of a prophesied messiah of the Fremen. This lets him spearhead a holy war against the Imperium, targeting the supply of spice that controls the universe.
The Dune: Fall of the Imperium campaign contains four acts. Each of these acts contains three full-length adventures, additional story seeds, and advice on how to expand the campaign beyond the events of the film.
The book even contains a new faction: the Qizarate, as well as details on the state of the known universe after the new emperor takes the throne.
Dune: Adventures in the Imperium is an award-winning licensed TTRPG based on Frank Herbert's sci-fi novel series. It has been praised for understanding the core themes and spirit of the source material while fleshing out the universe in interesting ways.
Dune: Fall of the Imperium is available for pre-order right now.
