Dune Awakening requirements forecast

To run the Dune Awakening requirements, we predict you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GPU, an Intel Core i5-3570K CPU, 8GB of RAM, and about 100GB of SSD space. 

With an open world survival MMO trailer live for Dune Awakening, we can make a good guess at what specs the Dune Awakening system requirements will demand, especially when we look at other MMOs and their specs. Fortunately, as the game is intended to be an MMO, the base requirements for the game should be fairly accessible to ensure no one is excluded from the game's launch.

Therefore, we predict that the Dune Awakening minimum requirements will demand an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card at minimum, an Intel Core i5-3570K processor, and 8GB of RAM. This should be enough to get the game up and running, but don't expect to witness the vast beauty of the desert on the highest settings at this level of hardware. 

Instead, to get the best out of the game, you'll almost certainly require a much higher level of hardware. 

So, to meet the Dune Awakening recommended specs, we estimate that you will need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU, an Intel Core i7-8700K CPU, and 16GB of RAM. This could well be overkil depending on how well the game is optimized, but it should be more than enough to get you up and running in Dune on the highest graphics settings .

Dune Awakening size

The Dune Awakening size is estimated to sit at 100GB of SSD space, based on similar game download sizes for projects of this magnitude and genre. It is unlikely that HDDs will be compatible with the game, especially as the Dune Awakening release date is potentially looking at 2025 rather than 2024 (though a beta is in a 'persistent' state accordign to the developers). 

So, if you need more space or want to make an upgrade, check the PCGamesN buyers guide for the best SSD for gaming or just check the latest, best prices for SSDs.
