Release of D:A

There is no current release date for Dune: Awakening, not even internally(as of 2024-04-05).[1][2][3][4]

Release platforms

Dune: Awakening will release on PC, Xbox X|S and PlayStation 5[5]

Timeline of Dune: Awakening

Dune awakening will roughly follow the books, however it will take place in an alternate timeline. However, Funcom has closely worked with both Legendary Pictures (Production Company of Dune(2021) and Dune: Part Two(2024)) and the Herbert family.[6]

While there is a "single point in time that starts a landslide of events", we do not know what this point/event is yet.[6]

Features one might expect that will not be present:

  • Sandworm riding
    • Sandworm riding will not be present but it seems Funcom would like to add it post release [7][8]
  • Sandwalking
    • Sandwalking was attempted but did not fit the game, however, Funcom "might come back to it"[9]
  • Base raiding
    • While Dune: Awakening will feature player bases(See: Building), the aim for PvP combat is for players to be steered away from each other's bases and towards battling over resources. However, if a player decides not to keep their shield maintained, they are left vulnerable to the environment and other players depending on where their base is situated.[10][11]
