Dune Awakening by Funcom received a client-side 1.2.0.0 Hotfix 1 that requires a Steam download and restart, and servers were briefly taken offline while fixes for rendering crashes, radiation effects, inventory bugs, and quest progression problems were applied; players should see the update appear automatically or restart Steam.
The update requires a client download and a restart if the patch does not appear automatically. Server stability was addressed alongside a client rendering crash tied to the disabled Lumen option. That should help. Several quest blockers were repaired, including a missing Ugo Firenze line and a canceled Dhood Shazz conversation, and boss and loot encounters were tightened so they progress after death or are no longer repeatable. The update is live on PC via Steam and removes problematic CHOAM crate items from inventories to prevent permanent glitches.

- Fixed various minor issues that led to server crashes.
- Fixed a recent known issue where radiation sometimes did not affect the player.
