In a surprising turn of events, Dune: Awakening manages to surpass the concurrent player numbers of renowned games like DOOM, Veilguard, Assassin's Creed, and other significant titles, even before its official launch. Impressive accomplishment indeed!
Due Arrival: Dune Awakening has been a smash hit for early access players, with over 142,000 concurrent gamers on Steam at its official launch. This massive player count far surpasses the likes of recent games such as Dragon Age: Veilguard, DOOM: The Dark Ages, and Assassin's Creed: Shadows.
As of now, the software is only available to Deluxe and Ultimate Edition owners during the pre-launch period, and Standard players will join in tomorrow. But even with these limited player numbers, the game has already outperformed other significant launches like Forza Horizon 5, which saw 70,000 concurrent players during its early access period.
In just four days, many users have logged around 30 hours of gameplay, praising the polished survival MMO experience. So far, the game has been pretty smooth sailing – a rarity for games in this genre – with minimal issues such as server crashes, queue times, or microtransaction drama.
By June 10, it's expected that player numbers will grow even more, bringing in those who haven't yet jumped on the Arrakis bandwagon.
