The Dune Awakening release time has been officially revealed. The game will be going live in just a few days – those with advanced access will have to wait less. The MMO is based on Arrakis and draws inspiration from the Dune novels by Frank Herbert and the Dune films.

However, it is set in a different reality – it has its complexities and mysteries for you to unravel. Paul Atreides was never born, the Fremen have vanished, Duke Leto Atreides survived, and House Atreides is now locked in brutal combat with House Harkonnen over Arrakis and the precious Spice.

Here is everything you need to know about the Dune Awakening release time, countdown, and the difference between advanced access and global release.

Besides Australia, all regions will gain access to the game starting June 10, 2025. You won't need to compete with players who have advanced access if you don't want to, as there will be multiple new servers/worlds added for global release. You can start your adventures on Arrakis alongside other first-timers.

That's everything we know about the Dune Awakening release times and countdown for all regions. With all that being said, May thy knife chip and shatter, and may your adventures on Arrakis be bountiful. If you plan on playing solo, you need not worry, unless you want to take part in PvP, in which case, you'll need to be part of a guide.
