Greetings Sleepers,

Patch 1.5.1.0 is now available on the Public Test Client. This major update coincides with the console launch and introduces two new features: single-player mode and a character-centric experience. It also includes a long list of changes and fixes. For this reason, we are releasing an early, experimental version of the patch on the PTC to gather your feedback early and improve the experience for everyone on September 22. This means that the version we’re releasing today for testing presents numerous work in progress and placeholder elements we plan to iterate on during the Public Test Client period.

This update will be available on the PTC for a longer period than usual, and we look forward to reading your feedback after you've had a chance to try out the new changes and features!

To assist you with testing, don’t forget to take advantage of the Progression Unlock Panel (only available in the PTC) where aside from getting resources and gear, XP and unlocking Journey chapters, you can unlock faction ranks and crafting materials.

Learn more about our Public Test Clients and how they work here. The best place to discuss the PTC is the relevant Steam Discussion Board and our Discord server exclusively for the PTC.

HIGHLIGHTS

• New single-player mode! Select between different difficulty presents or customize the game settings, and survive Arrakis on your own, your way.

• New character-centric experience: Create and browse through your characters from the main menu and choose where to bring them each time you play. 

• Major performance improvements and optimizations.

• Combat balancing pass, with improvements to melee, NPC balancing and much more.

• Restructured the way difficulty and reward scaling works in overland dungeon maps to make the overall experience more rewarding for the amount of effort invested.

• Improvements to the tutorialization and new player onboarding.

• Improvements to UI, gamepad support and rumble haptics!

• Two new face tattoos are now available for your character: Sandworm's Eye and The Maker's Markings. These tattoos were designed thanks to the input of our community during our First Anniversary livestream.
