Denis Villeneuve's recent cinematic triumphs have generated immense excitement for the upcoming survival MMO, Dune: Awakening. The wait is nearly over, as developer Funcom has confirmed a May 20 release date for PC. While console editions are planned for a later launch, everyone can now enjoy the newest gameplay trailer.

The preview showcases vast deserts, base construction, intense combat, and of course, the iconic sandworms—delivering the quintessential Dune experience.

To prepare for the game's arrival, Funcom has released a PC benchmark utility and a character creator. These tools let you optimize your system's performance and design your avatar ahead of time, ensuring you're ready to play the moment it launches.
