Funcom’s Dune Awakening is just a couple of handful of sleeps away if you’ve preordered the larger packages – an extra handful if you haven’t. That means the studio is releasing a detailed schedule for when exactly you can begin no-lifing Arrakis.

While you might assume the map is suggesting the launches are staggered around the globe, nope: The game unlocks at 10 .a.m. EDT on June 5th for Deluxe/Ultimate edition preorder folks, then 10 a.m. EDT on June 10th for everyone else. Everyone’s starting at the same time depending on version. The map just does all the time zone conversions for you.

“Pre-load will be available to all pre-order owners 24 hours before head start on June 4th, but please be aware that pre-ordering the base edition does not grant head start access,” Funcom reminds players.

The studio also notes that it’ll launch multiple servers around the world for the head start next week, “but the majority will go live with launch on June 10th as more players come in.” In other words, plan your destination server with your friends accordingly.
