Dune: Awakening MMO Character Creation Now Open

Game Launches On May 20th

In the Character Creator, you'll have the freedom to customize every detail of your character's appearance. You can also select your home planet, caste, and mentor or class, setting the stage for your journey in Arrakis. These characters will be seamlessly imported into the full game upon release. Plus, as an added bonus, early character creators will receive an exclusive Frameblade knife skin, which you can redeem with a code when the game launches.

The Benchmark Sequence is another valuable tool at your disposal. It will test your PC's performance and adjust graphics settings to ensure the best possible gaming experience. You'll journey through a player-built base in the desert, visit the bustling Harko Village, and even encounter a colossal sandworm.

The game is priced at USD 49.99, and soon, you'll be able to pre-order it on Steam. Pre-orders include a special in-base decoration called the Terrarium of Muad'Dib, featuring the beloved desert kangaroo mouse from the series.

Dune: Awakening Features An Alternate World

Dune: Awakening draws its rich lore from Frank Herbert's iconic novels and the movie adaptations, placing you in an open-world multiplayer survival game set in the expansive universe of Dune. You'll begin your adventure as a prisoner tasked with unraveling the mystery of the Fremen's disappearance. As you progress, your character will evolve from an unknown entity to a pivotal agent, aligning with either the Atreides or the Harkonnen factions.

The game's setting, the vast and ever-changing desert of Arrakis, offers endless possibilities for exploration. Each week, new locations, challenges, and rewards will emerge, and you'll compete to be the first to discover them. In Arrakis, you can construct bases, engage in combat, explore uncharted territories, and interact with other inhabitants. Carve your legacy and climb the ranks in this dynamic world!
