Players of Dune: Awakening have reported that the game predominantly uses only one CPU core, causing a highly uneven load distribution across multi-core processors. This single-threaded behavior, visible in Windows Task Manager, may contribute to performance inefficiencies and stuttering during gameplay. The issue could affect players with modern multi-core systems by limiting smoothness and responsiveness. No official fix or optimization guidance has been announced yet, but the community is actively discussing potential workarounds or settings that might improve CPU utilization.
- Single CPU core often reaches near 100% usage while others remain idle.
- Uneven CPU load may cause stuttering or reduced performance on multi-core systems.
