Dune: Awakening - 1.3.15.0 Patch Notes (14th April 2026)
Patch 1.3.15.0 brings Base Recycling to Dune: Awakening, letting you reclaim 100% of materials from backed-up bases, plus fixes to a nasty fire rate bug.
Base Recycling is the headliner for patch 1.3.15.0, which dropped today for Dune: Awakening. Back up a base using the Base Backup Tool, hold X, and you'll get 100% of the stored materials and items back. For a survival game where resource investment is everything, that's a useful quality-of-life addition, the kind of safety net that makes experimenting with base layouts feel far less punishing.
On the bug fix side, a weapon augment that caused an exaggerated increase to rate of fire has been corrected. If something felt off with your fire rate recently, it probably was. There's also a fix for mnemonic recollection charges occasionally granting at the wrong time or displaying an incorrect timer; to compensate, all players have been given the maximum 35 charges with this update.
Not a massive patch, but the Base Recycling feature alone makes it one worth installing. The complete notes are below.
