While most games offer skins and colour sliders for customization, Dune Awakening includes a unique swatches system. Swatches are a group of colours that form a pattern, functioning as a colour palette. Instead of picking a single colour, you can choose a color pattern from the available options. You can acquire different swatches through various activities, such as completing quests, Journey objectives, joining a faction, or unlocking specific Techs.

You can access the customization option from the inventory by navigating to the final tab. From there, select the weapon or garment you want to customize and choose your preferred swatch from the available options.

While you can preview the available swatches for your vehicles from the customization option, applying them requires a Wielding Torch. Equip a Wielding tool and approach any of your owned vehicles like Sandbike, Buggy, or Ornithopter. This brings up the customization interface, allowing you to apply swatches to your vehicle. You need to target a specific vehicle part to apply a swatch and then repeat the process for other parts.
