"Dune: Awakening Release Pushed Back Three Weeks"

Dune: Awakening's release has been postponed by three weeks to incorporate extensive player feedback. Dive in to discover the reasons behind this delay and what to expect from the game's 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 engaging events and activities. However, developer Funcom has decided to extend the development timeline. In a recent announcement on Twitter (X) on April 15, Funcom revealed that Dune: Awakening's release date will be pushed back by three weeks.

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

Funcom is committed to delivering a top-tier gaming experience, taking into account every piece of feedback from their beta testers. The additional three weeks, according to the developers, will provide "the necessary time to implement improvements that will enhance the gameplay experience right from the start."

Large-Scale Beta Weekend

Even with the delay, Funcom has exciting plans in the works. They've announced a large-scale beta weekend set for next month, offering more players a chance to experience the game and provide their insights. Further details on this event will be forthcoming.

The developers describe Dune: Awakening as a "beast of a game," a groundbreaking massive multiplayer survival title with unique gameplay and technical innovations. In the interim, players can stay engaged by tuning into livestreams on Steam, YouTube, and Twitch to delve deeper into 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 releases to follow at a yet-to-be-announced date. Keep yourself informed about the latest developments by checking out our article below!
