Dune: Part Three opens in Japan and the US on December 18, with IMAX, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, and MX4D screenings confirmed. IMAX revival screenings of Dune and Dune: Part Two run for one week from November 27 ahead of that opening, and both earlier films also began streaming without limit on Prime Video on November 2.
The series now runs on two tracks. The film track is closing out: Dune: Part Three, directed by Denis Villeneuve, opens in Japan and the US on December 18 with IMAX, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, and MX4D screenings. Timothée Chalamet returns as Paul, Robert Pattinson plays a mysterious man pressing him, Jason Momoa returns as Duncan, and Anya Taylor-Joy appears as Paul's sister Alia. A July trailer showed Paul as Emperor facing assassination plots; the final trailer in late October put Chani inside the plot against him. Advance tickets at 1,500 yen went on sale from the 30th, with a Japan-only clear file bonus.
The back catalog is being pulled into that opening. IMAX revival screenings of Dune and Dune: Part Two run for one week starting November 27, the two films screening once per day on an alternating basis, with roughly the first 7 minutes of Part Three shown in Japan for the first time. Both earlier films also began streaming without limit on Prime Video on November 2.
The game track is Dune: Awakening, the open-world survival title from Funcom in which players are an intelligence agent exploring Arrakis and investigating the vanished Fremen. The PC (Steam) version launched in June 2025 and sold over 1 million copies worldwide within about two weeks. The PS5 version was dated for September 22, then the Japanese PS5 release moved to October 29, when Spike Chunsoft shipped a packaged edition at 6,380 yen including tax, with Deluxe and Ultimate editions at 8,580 and 10,780 yen. A single-player mode was added to all platforms including PC on September 22. Official servers support up to 60 players. A PC public test client, patch 1.5.1.0, pre-implemented the single-player mode and revamped character system before the console launch.
