It’s break time, Sleepers.

Wondering whether Dune: Awakening servers are down? We've got you covered! Dune: Awakening has had a rocky launch with several technical and performance issues, including lag and stutter. Network congestion and ping issues are by far some of the most infuriating problems that have been preventing players from having a good time in Arrakis. 

Naturally, Funcom is deploying new patches and updates to fix some of the more pressing issues. However, this means Dune: Awakening servers are consistently going down for maintenance. As such, in this guide, we explain how to check for the Dune: Awakening server status.
