Embark on your Arrakis adventure early! Dune: Awakening, the upcoming survival MMO, launches May 20th, 2025, on Steam, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions following later. But you can start your journey now!

Dune: Awakening MMO Character Creation is Open!

Launch Date: May 20th, 2025

Developer Funcom has unleashed the Character Creator and Benchmark Mode. Craft your perfect Fremen (or not-so-Fremen!) and test your PC's readiness for the harsh realities of Arrakis.

Customize every detail: appearance, home planet, caste, and even choose a mentor/class. Your created character will seamlessly transfer to the full game on launch day. Early creators receive an exclusive Frameblade knife skin—redeem it with a code upon release!

The Benchmark Mode puts your PC through its paces, optimizing graphics settings for optimal performance. You’ll journey through a player-built base, explore the bustling Harkonnen hub of Harko Village, and even face a colossal sandworm!

Dune: Awakening will be priced at $49.99 USD. Pre-orders on Steam (coming soon!) include the Terrarium of Muad’Dib in-base decoration—a charming home for the desert’s beloved kangaroo mouse.

A New Chapter in the Dune Saga

Inspired by Frank Herbert's novels and the films, Dune: Awakening is an open-world, multiplayer survival game. Begin as a prisoner investigating the Fremen's disappearance, and rise to become a powerful agent of either House Atreides or House Harkonnen.

Explore the vast, ever-changing landscape of Arrakis. Discover new locations, face perilous challenges, and reap unique rewards each week. Build bases, engage in thrilling combat, uncover the secrets of the desert, and forge your own legend among the stars. Will you rise to power?
