Funcom has confirmed that the deployment process will begin at 11:00 UTC (13:00 CEST). If you are planning to head out into the deep desert to harvest spice or work on your latest base expansion, you will need to plan around a scheduled downtime. The developers expect the servers to be offline for approximately 120 minutes while the patch is applied across all platforms.
This 1.4.0.0 update is a significant milestone for the survival RPG, following recent reveals about the new Wind Pass and Landsraad missions. While the downtime is relatively short at just two hours, it is a mandatory break for all survivors. Ensure your character is in a safe location—preferably within the shield of a hub or a well-fortified base—before the maintenance window begins to avoid any unfortunate encounters with the environment or other players during the logout process.
Once the servers return, players can dive into the new content and technical improvements bundled with this version. This update continues Funcom's efforts to refine the brutal survival loop of Dune: Awakening, ensuring that the struggle for water and political power remains as polished as possible.
