Dune: Awakening's test weekend event kicks off today and will last until May 12, and now any player who pre-orders this massive multiplayer online game in survival can participate.

"Now, all players who pre-order Dune: Awakening can also participate in the test weekend event!" Funcom announced on social media a few hours after the test event was launched.

"We've heard feedback on this. If you've already pre-ordered, or decided to pre-order any version of the game this weekend, you should now see what's going on in the Steam game library for the test weekend."

Before the test weekend event began, Funcom issued "ten thousand" Dune: Awakening test keys, and there are multiple ways to obtain these keys, but it is strange that players who pre-order the game are not guaranteed to be qualified for the test.Even those players who pay for pre-orders before the game is released have to count on trying their luck in the lottery to participate in this weekend's test. It is a very common pre-order reward to be qualified for pre-orders.

For whatever reason, Funcom finally realized that not having the most loyal fans on the weekend test was not a good idea, so he corrected it.

Of course, this shift also raises another problem: many players who pre-order Dune: Awakening and get the test keys through the lottery have already received the keys - a bit of a waste, because the keys obtained from the lottery could have been given to players who did not pre-order.

This is not a big disaster, but it does seem a bit careless, especially Funcom said yesterday that in terms of launching large-scale multiplayer online games and survival games, "this is not the first time for us."
