Dune Awakening received new trailer and official release date

by Allison Feb 28,2025

The anticipation for Dune: Awakening, the survival MMO based on Denis Villeneuve's acclaimed films, is reaching fever pitch. Funcom has confirmed the PC release date: May 20th! Console players will need to wait a bit longer, but a new gameplay trailer offers a tantalizing glimpse of what awaits.

The trailer showcases the game's key features: the harsh Arrakis desert landscape, extensive base-building mechanics, thrilling combat encounters, and the iconic sandworms. It's everything a Dune fan could hope for.

Players will take on the role of a prisoner on Arrakis, beginning their journey by escaping captivity and then embarking on a perilous quest to unravel the mystery surrounding a missing Fremen tribe.

To ensure a smooth launch, Funcom has proactively released a benchmark tool and a character creator. This allows PC players to optimize their game settings and craft their characters ahead of time, minimizing delays on launch day.
