Dune: Awakening's release has been postponed by three weeks to incorporate more player feedback. Dive into the details behind the delay and discover what's planned for the game's upcoming large-scale beta weekend.
Dune: Awakening Development Updates
Coming on June 10
Dune: Awakening is on the path to launch, with numerous events and activities planned leading up to its release. However, developer Funcom has decided to allocate additional time for development. On April 15, via a Twitter (X) post, Funcom revealed that Dune: Awakening's release date would be shifted by three weeks.
Originally scheduled for May 20, the game will now launch on June 5 for deluxe edition buyers, and on June 10 for the global audience. This decision stems from the substantial feedback received during the ongoing Persistent Closed Beta. Funcom's goal is to deliver a top-notch gaming experience, and they are meticulously considering every piece of feedback from their beta testers. The developers believe that the additional three weeks will allow them to implement crucial improvements, ensuring a superior gameplay experience right from launch.
Large-Scale Beta Weekend
Despite the delay, Funcom has exciting plans for players in the interim. A large-scale beta weekend is set for next month, giving more players the chance to experience the game and provide feedback. Further details about this event will be announced soon.
Funcom describes Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," a groundbreaking massive multiplayer survival title featuring unique gameplay and technical elements. In the meantime, fans can stay engaged with the game by watching livestreams on platforms like Steam, YouTube, and Twitch to learn more about its features and mechanics.
Dune: Awakening is now slated for release on June 10, 2025, for PC, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions to follow at a later, yet-to-be-announced date. Keep an eye on our updates to stay informed about the latest on the game!
