Console launch contents
Dune: Awakening arrived on PS5 and Xbox on September 22, 2026, alongside a DLC release. The base game is included day one on Xbox Game Pass; the DLC is a separate purchase.
| Item | How to get it | Official price |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Edition | Purchase or Xbox Game Pass | $49.99 |
| Deluxe Edition | Purchase | $69.99 |
| Ultimate Edition | Purchase | $89.99 |
| Filmic Archive DLC | Separate purchase | $9.99 |
| Base game via Game Pass | Xbox Game Pass | Included day one |
The console release covers Xbox Series X|S and the Microsoft Store, and it ships with the complete experience and console-tailored UI and controls. Funcom announced the game is coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on September 22, 2026.
Two buying decisions sit on top of the base price. First, Game Pass members can still purchase the Deluxe and Ultimate editions separately, so a member is not really choosing between the three list figures. Second, the DLC is not included in Game Pass - the subscription covers the base game, and the Filmic Archive add-on is a separate purchase.
Editions, early access and pre-order
| Edition | Price | Notable extra |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $49.99 | Base game |
| Deluxe | $69.99 | 5-day early access from September 17 |
| Ultimate | $89.99 | 5-day early access from September 17 |
Pre-ordering added Terrarium of Muad’Dib, a placeable desert-mouse habitat for your base. Deluxe and Ultimate owners could start playing on September 17, five days ahead of the September 22 launch.
Weigh that early-access window honestly. It buys days, not content, and the launch-window reward below went to everyone who played inside its dates no matter which edition they owned. If a discount applies to your account, the Deluxe and Ultimate gap narrows; if it does not, the base game is the straightforward buy.
The DLC picture
Steam lists six DLC packages for the game, and the console stores sell the same add-ons. One is worth pricing out directly: the Filmic Archive DLC costs $9.99.
Its contents are now documented. Official material lists 73 Sardaukar build-kit pieces plus 17 decorative items, weapons and emotes, alongside named armour: Aegis of an Unwalked Path, Caladan Stormcoat, Harkonnen Cataphract, Atreides Hoplite, Longhaul Stillsuit, and three Sardaukar sets. If you build for looks rather than stats, that list is what the $9.99 buys.
A later hotfix, version 1.5.3.1, added a six-piece furniture set - a banner, two chairs, two tables and a rug - as well as a launcher option to start the game without installing or enabling the BattlEye anti-cheat. That furniture is free content; the Filmic Archive pack is the paid one. Note that the no-BattlEye launch option was temporarily pulled from the launcher shortly after the hotfix because it was not deploying correctly across all clients; check the current official patch notes before relying on it.
What landed around the launch, and after
Version 1.5 arrived on September 17, five days before the September 22 console release, bringing a complete solo mode and extensive customization. Hotfixes followed on September 19 and 21.
Two rewards run on their own clocks. Matron’s Decor was granted to anyone who played between September 17 and October 22. Separately, Polar Cap is coming as a free update later this year - a new survival map and ice biome with its own resources, drops, craftables and a standalone story line. Neither is an edition bonus, so no purchase decision changes them, and the patch tracker below follows both.
Where to check exact contents
Store pages remain the source of truth for what a bundle contains right now, and for the refund and entitlement rules attached to it. Promotions can move both price and included items, so the figures above are launch-window figures.
Treat what we list as a dated snapshot rather than a live price, and check your store before you buy. That is also where any platform-specific edition variation would appear first.
What we don’t know
Game Pass tier prices are not published, so we cannot tell you what a given subscription tier costs - only that the base game is included there; edition add-ons remain separate purchases.
Whether DLC entitlements carry across platforms is store-specific, and crossplay has no announced date beyond the official line that it arrives post-launch. If you plan to buy on one platform and play with friends on another, treat that as unresolved rather than assumed.
What this guide adds
What this site tracks instead: which content updates matter for console players, whether crossplay changes what an edition is worth to you, and how the platforms differ in practice.
Start with Platform differences before you commit to a store, Patch tracking for what changed and when, and Troubleshooting for connection checks. The Console hub on this site collects the platform-specific guides in one place.
How to read this page: the edition prices, the pre-order reward, the early-access window, the Filmic Archive price and contents, the Matron’s Decor window, the Polar Cap update and the Game Pass discount come from official Xbox and Funcom launch material. The DLC package count comes from the official Steam store page. The buying advice below that line is our reasoning for an independent fan site, not an official Funcom statement.
