Dune: Awakening
Microtransactions in Dune: Awakening are summarized as...
The game is available to purchase in 3 different versions:
- Standard edition, for roughly 50 USD.
- Deluxe edition, for roughly 70 USD, granting 5-day early access, a season pass, and a set of armor.
- Ultimate edition, for roughly 90 USD, granting 5-day early access, a season pass, the same set of armor as well as another set of armor, building sets, digital art and soundtrack, and cosmetic color palettes.
All 3 edition can be pre-ordered, granting the same rewards; a color palette and a building accessory.
With the game being an MMO, the 5-day early access can leave players who opted to pay extra at an advantage compared to those who didn't. They will have had a head start on acquiring gear, items, and experience.
The season pass is said to contain 4 DLCs, but what these DLCs contain is not yet known. The developer have said that the DLCs will be available outside of these season passes as well.
The game has not yet launched, and as such not all details are not known. The developers have stated the game will receive regular free updates, as well as paid DLC. The developers stated in a livestream that the game will not contain any in-game monetization.
