About

Dune: Awakening is an open-world survival massively multiplayer online game set on the most dangerous planet in the universe.

This is your Dune. A Dune where Paul Atreides was never born, and a War of Assassins rages between Atreides and Harkonnen. Where the machinations of guilds and powerful houses devour the unprepared as easily as the ancient sandworms that prowl the open deserts. In a world shared by hundreds of other players, will you rise to lead a Great House and control the flow of spice itself?

Your journey begins here, in the desert. Find the Fremen. Wake the Sleeper.

Key Features

• Survive
  • Embark on an epic journey to uncover the mysteries of your past and the disappearance of the Fremen.
  • Learn the ways of the desert. Craft a cutterray for harvesting, a stillsuit for hydration, and a stilltent for emergency shelter. Practice water discipline and beware the great sandworms. Build a shelter on solid ground and upgrade it into a mighty fortress using the powerful building system.
  • Infiltrate bandit camps by utilizing advanced weaponry and tech: reach high ground with the shigawire claw, deploy your hunter-seeker, and repel direct fire with the Holtzman shield.
• Expand
  • Develop and specialize your character by following the path of the Swordmaster, Trooper, Mentat, Planetologist, and Bene Gesserit, mixing and matching unique and powerful abilities.
  • Spice is power. Risk the open desert to harvest it, then make your fortune on the exchange, or consume it to unshackle your mind and enhance your abilities beyond human limits – but do not let addiction overcome you.
  • Explore the vastness of Arrakis, piloting crafted ornithopters and groundcars, from the depths of the Hagga Rift to the peaks of the Hand of Khidr. Band together with other players to venture deep into the ancient Imperial Testing Stations.
• Control
  • Join a guild and rise to power. Employ subterfuge and clash with other guilds at spice fields in epic battles that combine tanks, ornithopters, and spice-enhanced infantry.
  • Witness the very landscape shift as Coriolis Storms regularly sweep across the Deep Desert, wiping the map clean and revealing new riches and points of interest beneath the sand. Be the first to scout and seize control of key locations.
  • Pledge your guild’s loyalty to the Atreides or Harkonnen and manipulate the decisions of the Landsraad, global policy and taxation mandates that affect all players.
