Dune: Awakening launched June 10th, and already 1,000,000 players have awakened, making it Funcom’s fastest-selling game ever. To put it into perspective, it took Conan Exiles one year to reach this number. We’re truly humbled and thankful for this reception.
The game has so far reached a peak concurrency of over 189,000 players, another metric that has far surpassed Conan Exiles’ 54,403 peak. Conan Exiles was Funcom’s first foray into the survival genre and went on to become a massive hit.
Dune: Awakening players are often referred to as Sleepers (play the game, you’ll get it), but it must be noted that they certainly don’t live up to that title, because they have been busy since launch.
Launch has been a Coriolis storm, and we’re still riding that mighty gale. We have seen so many amazing things from all our players – the bases, the close calls with Shai-Hulud, the epic vehicle jumps, the struggles, discoveries, victories, heroic deaths, and so much more..
Today, we commemorate these Deeds and Deaths in this infographic.
Dune: Awakening is a large-scale multiplayer survival game set on the unforgiving planet of Arrakis, inspired by the imaginative universe created by Frank Herbert and brought to life by Denis Villeneuve and Legendary Entertainment’s award-winning movies.
