Dune: Awakening's release has been postponed by three weeks to incorporate valuable player feedback. Read on to discover the reasons behind the delay and details about the upcoming large-scale beta weekend.
Dune: Awakening Development Updates
Coming on June 10
Dune: Awakening is gearing up for its much-anticipated launch with numerous events and activities planned. However, developer Funcom has decided to allocate additional time for development. In a tweet on April 15, Funcom announced a three-week delay for Dune: Awakening.
Originally slated for release on 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 extensive feedback gathered during the Persistent Closed Beta, prompting the developers to refine the game further.
Funcom is committed to delivering a high-quality gaming experience and is meticulously considering all feedback from beta testers. The additional three weeks, according to the developers, 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 the interim period. They've announced a large-scale beta weekend next month, offering more players the chance to experience the game and provide feedback. Further details on this event will be released soon.
The developers describe Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," featuring unprecedented gameplay and technical elements in the massive multiplayer survival genre. In the meantime, players can stay informed about the game’s features and mechanics through livestreams on Steam, YouTube, and Twitch.
Dune: Awakening is now scheduled for release on June 10, 2025, for PC, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S releases to follow at a later, yet-to-be-announced date. Stay tuned to our article below for the latest updates on the game!
