Mark your calendars and set your reminders! The much-anticipated Dune: Awakening Direct Episode 2 is officially set for June 20, 2024, starting at 18:00 CEST, 12:00 EDT, and 09:00 PDT. This exciting news comes fresh from Summer Game Fest, where we previously expected the live stream to happen before the event. However, the wait is now just a few days, with the stream happening in less than two weeks.
We’ve promptly updated our countdown timers on the sidebar of our website so you can track precisely how much time is left until the broadcast begins.
The first Dune: Awakening Direct, nearly half an hour long, featured the “Survive Arrakis” trailer, an insightful behind-the-scenes video, and engaging developer Q&As. Following in its footsteps, Episode 2 promises to delve deeper into the game’s alternative timeline and other soon-to-be-announced topics. This narrative direction was just showcased in the new “The Vision of Paul Atreides” trailer at Summer Game Fest.
Funcom has confirmed that no gameplay will be shown in the second episode, but will be revealed at Gamescom instead.
Once again, Soe Gschwind will host the event, using her charisma and expertise to guide viewers through the exciting revelations.
As a community, we’ve been proactive and have created a full wishlist of features and content we’d love to see in the next episode. If Funcom is running out of ideas, they might find our suggestions quite handy!
Stay tuned for more updates, and be sure to join us for what promises to be another captivating installment of Dune: Awakening Direct.
