The world ofDune Awakeningis filled with threats, but none are as dangerous as the gigantic Sandworm that hides underneath the desert. Players are one death by the Sandworm away from losing all their gear and vehicle, wasting hours of progress. However, you may have noticed that stepping into the open does not bring up the Sandworm indicator, and neither does our Goliath friend show up anymore. So, where did the Shai-Hulud go, and why is it missing inDune Awakening?
This issue has been fixed on the server end, and players can now encounter the Sandworm while stepping into the deserts of Arrakis inDune Awakening.
Where Is the Sandworm in Dune Awakening?
If players step into the open desert, they won’t see our Sandworm friend, theShai-Hulud, anymore inDune Awakening. You’ll be greeted withthe Shai-Hulud Missing notification, followed by a message from the devs, “We’re aware that Shai-Hulud is currently missing, we’re working on it, and he’ll soon be back prowling the sands.”
So, that pretty much explains why roaming aroundDune Awakeninghas been so easy lately. The developers are possibly working on tweaking its AI and improving its overall appearance in the game. So, in the meantime, players can freely travel between locations,without worrying about starting a Sandworm chasethat will likely lead to them losing all their inventory.
