Arrakis is filling up fast during the advanced access «head start» period.
Survival MMO Dune: Awakening isn’t even really out, officially: we’re now in the five day advanced access period (everyone calls it the «head start») where only players who have purchased the $70 deluxe edition or the $90 ultimate edition can play.
That hasn’t stopped the desert planet of Arrakis from getting a ton of new citizens. According to SteamDB, just a few hours into the head start launch, Dune: Awakening already has nearly 100,000 players building bases, riding speeders, clambering up cliffs, and dodging sandworms.
That’s a spicy start, especially since there’s still the weekend to come, and after that, oh yeah: the actual Dune: Awakening launch on Tuesday, June 10.
