From Funcom:
Dune: Awakening receives a new content drop with Update 1.4 and The Water Wars DLC, available now. Dune: Awakening is an Open-World Survival game from developer and publisher Funcom inspired by Frank Herbert’s Dune as well as Denis Villeneuve and Legendary Entertainment’s blockbuster franchise.
Since launch, the game has received over 15 updates, including a recent move to make PvP fully optional, putting players in control of how they experience Arrakis. Update 1.4 continues that momentum with the following free content:
- Wind Pass — Formerly a Harkonnen tech hub, now controlled by the Water Shippers and central to Arrakis’ water trade.
- The Old Quarry Testing Station — A scalable new Testing Station where players confront the devious Dr. Jalanta – a new boss with unique mechanics - in her hidden laboratory.
Both locations introduce new rewards and five new Landsraad Missions. This update also includes the first iteration of Self-Hosted Servers. While it’s currently being worked on with feedback from the early adopters, it allows players to host their own versions of Arrakis with their own rules. This feature will continue to be refined and made more user-friendly for a wider audience.
The Water Wars DLC, also available today, adds Water Shipper–themed building pieces and cosmetics inspired by the dynasty that dominates Arrakis' water economy. This DLC completes the Season Pass, included in the Deluxe and Ultimate Editions.
