Dune: Awakening Development Updates
Coming on June 10
Dune: Awakening is gearing up for its much-anticipated launch with a series of exciting events and activities. However, developer Funcom has decided to take additional time to refine the game.

The additional three weeks will allow the developers to implement crucial improvements, ensuring a better gameplay experience right from launch day.
