Dune: Awakening Character Creation is Already Available

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

Dune: Awakening MMO Character Creation is Open!

Launch Date: May 20th, 2025

Developer Funcom has unleashed the Character Creator and Benchmark Mode, letting you craft your perfect Fremen (or not-so-perfect Harkonnen!) before the game even launches. Customize every detail – appearance, home planet, caste, even your mentor class – and import your creation directly into the game on release. Early character creation also nets you an exclusive Frameblade knife skin, redeemable via code at launch!

The Benchmark Mode thoroughly tests your PC's performance, automatically adjusting graphics settings for optimal gameplay. Experience a stunning journey through a player-built base, the bustling Harkonnen hub of Harko Village, and a thrilling encounter with a colossal sandworm.

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

Explore an Alternate Arrakis

Inspired by Frank Herbert's novels and the film adaptations, Dune: Awakening plunges you into a vast, open-world multiplayer survival experience. Begin as a prisoner investigating the Fremen's disappearance, then rise through the ranks to become a powerful agent of either House Atreides or House Harkonnen.

Arrakis, the ever-shifting desert planet, is your playground. Explore endlessly, build bases, engage in thrilling combat, and uncover weekly surprises – new locations, dangers, and rewards await those brave enough to explore. Forge your legacy and carve your place among the legends of Arrakis!
