Oh man, so the last beta for Dune Awakening is up and running. And guess what, now a bunch of new players can finally check out Funcom’s survival MMO. I remember hearing about it awhile back, and now it’s finally open for testing over the weekend. They’re only letting people loose in the first two big areas, though, so it sounds like just a little taste of what’s coming. But hey, gotta start somewhere, right?
The game’s release date got pushed to June 10 — yeah, kind of a bummer for those counting the days. If you were holding out for May 15, well, here’s a little consolation prize: one last free ride in the beta. It’s like a light at the end of this delay tunnel. Or is that too cheesy? Whatever.
I remember reading our own preview on this — wait, did I mention this? Anyway, it was mostly positive, but left those nerdy gamedev questions hanging in the air. You know, like what’s the deal with the end-game stuff? They talked about it, but didn’t really show it off. Hmm, curious. Or maybe I’m just overthinking it.
Wanna dive into this beta? Well, first, you gotta slap that wishlist button on Steam and cross your fingers for that magic email. Some lucky ducks already got in through developer giveaways, but who knows? Maybe more spots will open up. Just keep your eyes peeled and maybe wishlist it just because — you never know when luck’s gonna strike.
Thinking of trying the game this weekend? Shout it out in the comments or just let us know how hyped you are for Dune Awakening. I’m kinda curious what you all think.
