TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS
It has been officially Ten years of Warframe, and we are so thankful for every Tenno who has been a part of this journey. In honor of this momentous anniversary, we’re celebrating all the way from March to August, culminating with TennoCon!
To kick off the celebrations, players can expect the usual Anniversary Alerts and Boosters, starting on March 24th! For a full look at the event schedule, visit warframe.com/anniversary
In addition to the return of familiar Dex items, you can also look forward to the new Dex Drifter Suit, releasing closer to TennoCon!
DUVIRI SNEAK PEEKS
MOUNTED DAX
Devstream 168 showed you many Duviri units, but the Mounted Dax was not one of them! Here’s a look at another foe you may encounter in your daily Duviri missions:
Of course, there are multiple ways to take on a problem -- we’ll see how you approach it in Duviri, Tenno.
OROWYRM FIGHT
We have mentioned the fabled Orowyrm fight in the past -- here is a sneak preview of what players can expect.
SOULFRAME TEASE
Soulframe is very much in development, but we can’t have the old Devstream crew on and not show what they’re working on! They mentioned that it’s not really recommended to show gameplay this early, but we did it anyway:
Expect to see more of Soulframe at TennoCon this year in August!

While reminiscing, Megan prepared a few questions for the team as well -- let’s take a look at some of their answers!
What was the scariest update you guys had to release?
- - Reb: Every update ever!
- - Geoff: Second Dream.
- - Sheldon: Update 13 (Note: there were no birds added in this one so we're not 100% sure why he was so scared!)
Will there ever be a Legacy Version of Warframe to play?
- - Reb: No.
- - Geoff: It’s hard to say what exact iteration of the game would be considered a “legacy version”.
Hopes and dreams for the next 10 years:
- - Reb: Survive Duviri.
