"Dune: Awakening Release Pushed Back Three Weeks"

Dune: Awakening's release has been pushed back by three weeks to incorporate more player feedback. Dive into the details behind the delay and get the scoop on 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 a series of events and activities leading up to the big day. However, developer Funcom has decided to extend the development period. On April 15, via a post on X (formerly Twitter), Funcom announced that Dune: Awakening's release date would be delayed by three weeks.

Originally slated for a May 20 release, the game will now launch on June 5 for deluxe edition buyers, and on June 10 for the global audience. This decision stems from substantial feedback received during the Persistent Closed Beta, prompting the developers to allocate more time to refine the game.

Funcom is committed to delivering a high-quality experience and is taking every piece of feedback from beta testers seriously. The additional three weeks, according to the developers, will provide "the time needed to make improvements that will lead to a better gameplay experience from day one."

Large-Scale Beta Weekend

While the release of Dune: Awakening has been delayed, Funcom has planned an exciting large-scale beta weekend next month. This event will allow more players to dive into the game and provide their feedback. More details on this event will be released soon.

Funcom describes Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," highlighting its status as a massive multiplayer survival game with unprecedented gameplay and technical elements. In the interim, players can watch livestreams on Steam, YouTube, and Twitch to get a deeper understanding of the game's features and mechanics.

Dune: Awakening is now scheduled to launch on June 10, 2025, for PC, with releases for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S planned for a later, yet-to-be-announced date. Stay tuned to our updates to keep informed about all the latest news on Dune: Awakening!
