Dune: Awakening is a large-scale multiplayer survival game set on the unforgiving planet of Arrakis, inspired by the imaginative universe created by Frank Herbert and brought to life by Denis Villeneuve and Legendary Entertainment’s award-winning movies. Players must endure scorching sun, deadly sandstorms, and ever-present sandworms. They’ll craft everything from weapons and armor to ground cars and ornithopters, while advancing in both personal and political power. Players can align with the Atreides or Harkonnen to participate in activities that influence the shared world. Bridging survival and MMO gameplay, Dune: Awakening features expansive multiplayer systems where hundreds of players coexist—trading, battling, and navigating political intrigue across persistent servers.
Also available now is the Dune: Awakening Season Pass, which includes the Wildlife of Arrakis DLC. This pack features four in-game statues celebrating some of the planet’s most tenacious creatures: the sandworm, chiroptera, kulon, and Muad’Dib.
The remaining three DLCs included in the Season Pass are scheduled for release in Q4 2025, Q1 2026, and Q2 2026. In addition, Funcom will provide free updates that bring new content, features, and enhancements to the game.
