"Dune: Awakening Release Postponed by Three Weeks"

Dune: Awakening's release has been pushed back by three weeks to incorporate valuable player feedback. Dive in to discover the reasons behind the delay and what to expect from the upcoming large-scale beta weekend.

Dune: Awakening Development Updates

Coming on June 10

Dune: Awakening is gearing up for its launch with a series of events and activities. However, developer Funcom has decided to extend the development timeline. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) dated April 15, Funcom revealed that Dune: Awakening's release date has been shifted by three weeks.

Originally slated 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 Persistent Closed Beta. Funcom aims to deliver a high-quality game and is taking every piece of feedback seriously. The additional three weeks, according to the developers, will allow them to "make improvements that will enhance the gameplay experience from day one."

Large-Scale Beta Weekend

Despite the delay, Funcom has exciting plans for players in the interim. They've announced a large-scale beta weekend next month, giving more players the chance to experience the game and provide feedback. Details about this event will be released soon.

Funcom describes Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," a massive multiplayer survival title featuring innovative gameplay and technical elements. In the meantime, players can stay engaged by watching livestreams on platforms like Steam, YouTube, and Twitch to learn more about the game’s features and mechanics.

Dune: Awakening is now scheduled for release on June 10, 2025, for PC, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions to follow at a later, unspecified date. Keep up with the latest news on the game by checking out our article below!
