This article explains how you’re able to preload Dune Awakening on your PC via Steam so that you can start playing it as soon as the servers go live.
Dune Awakening is all set for its global release on August 21, 2025. However, if you have pre-ordered any edition of Dune Awakening, you can currently preload the game on your PC. Preloading allows you to download the game files ahead of the official release. This can often save a lot of time that you spend downloading the game on launch day, thus allowing you to play the game almost as soon as it launches.
Although you can currently preload Dune Awakening via Steam, you will need to download an additional patch when the game launches. This small patch unlocks the game files so that you can finally play it. In this article, we will explain how you can preload Dune Awakening on your PC.
