Dear Sleepers, 

We’re approaching the release date with great anticipation, and we’ve recently started a significant beta test involving numerous media professionals and content producers. They’re currently exploring the initial stages of the game, and they’ll be sharing their reviews and insights on April 25th.

Over the last several weeks, we’ve been gradually ramping things up. We launched the Character Creator and Benchmark Mode in February, began taking pre-orders in March, and have been consistently providing live streams, videos, and updates to keep you in the loop.

Our Closed Beta Test, which is still ongoing, is progressing smoothly and consistently. We’re continually making improvements based on the feedback we receive from our beta testers, ensuring that when we finally launch the game, it will be of high quality. We also have an active Discord community where our developers engage directly with our beta testers to collaboratively make Dune: Awakening a better gaming experience for everyone.

Through this procedure, we’ve discovered that by allowing a little extra cooking time, we can address a significant amount of valuable feedback from our beta testers more effectively.

Hey fellow gamers! I’ve got some news about Dune: Awakening. The release date has been pushed back to June 10th, but don’t worry, we’re giving you a head start by opening early access on June 5th. We understand your eagerness to dive into the game, but trust us, these extra three weeks will allow us to fine-tune and optimize various aspects of the game, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable experience right from the get-go. Let’s make Dune: Awakening an unforgettable journey together!

As a gamer, I can’t contain my excitement! Next month, we’re planning a massive beta weekend event, giving many more of you a chance to dive into the game and share your valuable insights. Keep an eye out for more details on this upcoming event, coming your way soon!

Awakening” is an incredibly challenging game. It offers multiplayer survival across vast landscapes, and we’re pushing boundaries in both gameplay and technology that haven’t been explored much within this genre before. We aim to execute it flawlessly.

Additionally, remember to catch today’s live broadcast on Steam, YouTube, and Twitch, as our team members will demonstrate and discuss further details about the combat system in Dune: Awakening.
