Story Trailer Out Now, Large-Scale Beta Weekend Coming on May 9-12!

Greetings Sleepers, 

We have a huge Beta Weekend and broadcast coming up soon! Read on to get all the details, and don’t miss our brand-new Story Trailer, giving you a taste of the cinematic storytelling awaiting you in Dune: Awakening. 

Large-Scale Beta Weekend – May 9-12 

From May 9 until May 12, a large-scale Beta weekend will take place, the largest one yet, with a huge number of new players joining, and no NDA, unlike previous closed Betas. Share any info you want with your friends, or even stream the game for all to see! 

With access to the first 20 hours of the game and most of Act 1 of the story, you will get a taste of both spice and story. 

You have a chance to gain access to the Beta weekend by wishlisting and request access on the Dune: Awakening Steam page, or by getting one of tens of thousands of Beta codes that will be given out during the global broadcast on May 10. 

We will share the full details about the Beta soon. 

Global Broadcast – May 10 

Tune in to our Global Dune: Awakening LAN party, broadcast from both London and PAX East. Throughout the event, we will jump to many other locations around the world to check in with people playing the game. Watch lead developers discuss the game, with various content creators then facing off in-game in an exciting competition.  

For a chance to get access to the Beta weekend, this is the place to be, as tens of thousands of Beta keys will be handed out during the broadcast to all those watching. Keys can be used to get immediate access to the Dune: Awakening Beta weekend. 

Anyone attending PAX East in person is more than welcome to visit our Dune: Awakening booth for a chat and to play the game. 

Survival and Story 

Find the Fremen. Wake the Sleeper. 

Gom Jabbar held at your neck, this is your mandate. Embark on an odyssey across Arrakis, told through a rich cast of characters and cinematic cutscenes. Get a glimpse of the epic journey in today’s Story Trailer: 

Dune: Awakening’s cinematic story is an essential thread in the full tapestry - the open world survival experience – rooting you firmly in the universe of the sci-fi masterpiece. With this game, we aim to pull cinematic storytelling further into the multiplayer survival space. 

Walk in the footsteps of the Fremen as you learn to survive the desert and uncover a past that the sands have buried. In the deadly crucible of Arrakis, each of you must eventually answer: who are you? 

On June 10, you will finally be free to fully explore the rich and imaginative world created by Frank Herbert, feet in scorching sand, for the first time ever.  

We can’t wait for you to get there. Neither can the worms.
