Earlier this summer, Dune: Awakening developer Funcom promised players that major updates to the game will be released every three or four months. Now, Funcom has shared a broader roadmap of its plans for Dune: Awakening, including both free and paid DLC.
Funcom posted the Dune: Awakening DLC roadmap on Steam, and the dev team noted it has been working to fix bugs and exploits while banning cheaters and improving the stability of the game. At GamesCom later this week, Funcom will debut new details about September’s free update for Chapter 2 and the paid DLC, The Lost Harvest. These updates won’t modify the endgame content of Awakening, because they were in development before the game launched.
The free updates for Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 will arrive between January and March 2026 and April and June 2026, respectively. Details about Chapter 4 are scarce, but Chapter 3 will feature a revamped endgame. In the meantime, Funcom is implementing some requested endgame changes, including improved player logging and deep desert loot, as well as a way to locate or salvage lost vehicles. Another new service will update players on the status of their bases via email.
