Dune: Awakening's release has been pushed back by three weeks to incorporate more player feedback. Dive into the details of why the delay occurred and what to expect from the upcoming large-scale beta weekend.
Dune: Awakening Development Updates
Coming on June 10
Dune: Awakening is on the cusp of its eagerly awaited launch, with numerous events and activities planned to build up to the big day. However, developer Funcom has decided to allocate additional time for development. On April 15, Funcom took to Twitter (X) to announce that Dune: Awakening's release 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, with a global release following on June 10. This decision stems from the substantial feedback received during the ongoing Persistent Closed Beta. Funcom is committed to delivering a top-notch gaming experience and is taking every piece of feedback from beta testers into account. The extra 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

Even with the postponed release, Funcom has something exciting lined up for fans. They've announced a large-scale beta weekend next month, offering more players the chance to dive into the game and provide their insights. Additional details on this event will be released soon.
Funcom describes Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," a massive multiplayer survival experience featuring unprecedented gameplay and technical elements within the genre. In the interim, players can tune into livestreams on Steam, YouTube, and Twitch to get a deeper understanding of 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 yet-to-be-announced date. Keep an eye on our updates to stay informed about the latest on Dune: Awakening!
