Funcom’s open-world Dune: Awakening is out now on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S (alongside the existing PC version), with day-one Xbox Game Pass, a full single-player mode, the Book One story finale, and the Filmic Archive cosmetics DLC at $9.99 on all platforms (Bandai Namco Europe; prior console date framing via Funcom / DuneAwakening.com and Level Infinite). Street day for the console launch is September 22, 2026.

Console street + Game Pass + Play Anywhere

Xbox Game Pass members get the game day one; Deluxe/Ultimate editions are discounted 20% for members per Bandai Namco Europe. The title is Xbox Play Anywhere enabled — progression carries across Xbox console, Windows Store, ROG Xbox Ally, and Xbox Cloud Gaming. Cross-play between consoles and PC is confirmed to arrive post-launch; at launch, Xbox↔Windows Store Play Anywhere covers that Microsoft stack only. Do not invent a full multiplat cross-play day.

Single-player, Book One finale, scalable settings

The same-day update (also on PC) adds a full single-player mode covering the entire game’s content and features, plus deep gameplay customization (harvesting rates, death penalties, XP gain, and more) and hours of additional story that conclude Book One of the game’s cinematic Dune narrative. Bandai Namco Europe also highlights optional PvP, rebuilt endgame missions, Augmentations/Specializations, and console-driven performance work baked into the day-one console build — framing this as the best version of Awakening yet after ~15 months of PC updates.

Filmic Archive DLC — $9.99

Filmic Archive ($9.99, all platforms) lets players outfit characters, gear, and bases with Imperium-flavored looks inspired by Legendary/Denis Villeneuve’s film franchise — examples cited include the Caladan Stormcoat and Aegis of an Unwalked Path armor, plus 73 Sardaukar building pieces, décor, weapons, and emotes. Soft Part Three premiere tease only as published cosmetics framing — do not invent a game–movie plot crossover beyond that.

To celebrate the update, Steam is running a 50% discount through October 8. A physical PS5 edition is rolling out via Bandai Namco Europe (EMEA/AU/NZ), Solutions 2 GO (Americas), and Spike Chunsoft in Japan with a Japanese street of October 29.

As-of: 2026-09-22 morning ~8:37 AM CT (America/Chicago). Out now Sep 22 — PS5 + Xbox Series (+ PC). Day-one Game Pass; Play Anywhere; cross-play TBA post-launch. Single-player + Book One finale + Filmic Archive $9.99. Steam 50% through Oct 8; Japan physical PS5 Oct 29.
