The wait is soon to be over (finally!). Dune: Awakening will finally be ready to play on June 10, but there are things you can do to speed up the wait. Read on!
In case you’re unfamiliar with the upcoming game, here’s a quick scoop. Dune: Awakening is an upcoming survival MMO game set in the iconic science fiction universe created by the legendary Frank Herbert.
Interestingly enough, it offers a new take on the events, an alternate timeline where the Fremen are gone and Paul Atreides was never born. Since Arrakis is a desert planet, it’s very inhospitable, so this means surviving is going to be a daunting task.
Anyway, you will be able to start preloading the game on Steam today, June 4. Preloading means you will install the game faster, but won’t be able to play it yet, as it unlocks next week on June 10.
However, there are versions of the game which let you start playing sooner thanks to the advanced access perk. If you bought either the Deluxe or Ultimate edition of Dune: Awakening, you will be able start playing on June 5, five days ahead of the official release.
So, if you can’t wait to start harvesting spice and trying not to get eaten by giant sandworms, buying one of these versions is your ticket to much quicker access to the full game.
