Dune Awakening is being developed with Unreal Engine 5.2. The engine’s Lumen and Nanite technologies are said to be important for creating the atmosphere of the game. “Using Unreal 5 to create a game like this is definitely one of the best options,” Bylos said.
The release date of Dune Awakening is still uncertain. However, beta registration is now open. The survival game will be available for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
