The patch also fixes single-player water generation and small shipwreck spawns, with retroactive unlocks for two achievements.
Dune: Awakening update 1.5.20.0 is now live on all platforms, letting players play single-player without an internet connection at any point, including when creating or deleting characters. A Go Online button lets players reconnect. Funcom announced the release in its Steam announcement.
