Is Dune Awakening down? Server status right now

Is Dune Awakening down? While we still love single-player games, but there's also something to be said for the chaotic joy to be had in multiplayer experiences – especially massively multiplayer ones.

One of the few downsides that comes with playing with friends and strangers around the world is the instability of online servers. As a survival MMO, Dune Awakening could be victim to severe server downtime, so if you're struggling to get into Arrakis, that could be why. Here, we've got the latest on maintenance in the crafting game, and the current Dune Awakening server status.

Dune Awakening servers go live for early access players on Thursday, June 5, 2025, at 7am PDT / 10am EDT / 3pm BST. We'll keep an eye on the server situation as the game launches and beyond to keep you up-to-date with the latest server downtime, issues, and fixes.

Early access is available ahead of the Dune Awakening release date on Tuesday, June 10 for players who have preordered the Deluxe or Ultimate Edition of the game. If you want to get online early, you can upgrade your standard edition copy, or purchase one of these editions if you don't already own the game.

So, that's the latest on the Dune Awakening server status. If you can't get online right now, you could try a Dune Awakening private server. Alternatively, you can always have a go at some of our other favorite survival games, or peruse our list of upcoming PC games on the horizon.
