Dune: Awakening Achievements List and How to Unlock Them#

Achievement Overview#

Dune: Awakening ships with 73 achievements on Steam, and every single one is publicly listed. The overall structure is easy to read: prologue and basic-system tutorials, five school training sets, story act milestones, the three-tier fabricator trio, kill counters, exploration goals, and a handful of hidden achievements.

Going by global Steam stats, most achievements sit in the 30%-60% completion band, while 12 achievements are under 1%. The rarest of them all, Master Assassin, has sat at 0% for ages — a true holdout that refuses to budge.

Starter and System Achievements#

Time to Relax is the classic “shockingly missed” achievement — plenty of players log dozens of hours before remembering that chairs can actually be used.

The Fabricator Trio#

The three achievements map directly onto the fabricator upgrade path and unlock naturally as your base grows. Ultimate Machinery is the long-haul goal (under 1% completion).

School Training Achievements (All Five)#

All five require tracking down every trainer and maxing out the skill trees. Since there are only about 200 skill points to spend, prioritize unlocking skills first, then circle back to finish off the training achievements.

Story and Character Achievements#

Lisan al-Gaib ties into a special encounter late in the main story and sits at roughly 4% completion. Many players miss it by accepting the vision’s offer, so make a save before the key choice.

Kill-Count Achievements#

Master Assassin (0%) and Miner (hand-harvest 10000 units of every resource type, 0%) are the two great walls on the road to full completion. Both call for a deliberate, long-term farming plan.

Vehicle, Building and Survival Achievements#

Most of these accumulate on their own as you play, but the water and blood totals are worth starting early — passive collection adds up slowly.

Exploration and Social Achievements#

The hidden landmarks here are easy to miss without a route plan, so mark Mirzabah, the Hand of Khidr and the Stone Sentinel on your map before heading into the deep desert.

Suggested Route to Full Completion#

1. Phase one (0-30 hours): prologue, basic systems and school training all unlock naturally as you push the main story.
2. Phase two (30-80 hours): the fabricator trio, vehicle crafting, exploration achievements and story achievements.
3. Phase three (long haul): grind the 500-level kill counters on a weekly schedule; save Master Assassin and Miner for the final push.
4. Throughout: hidden achievements are mostly one-time choices or special locations — get in the habit of saving before major story beats.
