As a devoted fan, I can’t help but express my excitement as we approach a momentous occasion. Warframe is about to celebrate its 12th birthday on March 7, an achievement that seemed unimaginable when our journey began. To show our heartfelt gratitude to the community that has been with us every step of the way, we have some incredible content in store for you this year.

Techrot Encore isn’t just the kickoff to our 12th year; it’s our largest ‘echoes’ update yet, aiming to further enrich the Warframe: 1999 experience. We can hardly contain our enthusiasm as we prepare to bring our out-of-this-world space virus boy band to life, and I must say, you won’t want to miss the party of a lifetime on March 19!

Highlights from the Warframe Devstream include:

Outrock the competition as the 60th addition to Warframe’s roster, Temple, the flame of revolution.

  • As Temple, I unleash fiery projectiles to razze a house apart. I conjure Techrot Subwoofer minions, boosting allies while weakening foes. I strum a legendary melody that ignites jet flames. With the intelligent Infested guitar Lizzie as my Exalted Weapon, I can shoot projectiles with a string pluck and temporarily transform into a flamethrower.

Not just mastering the newest endgame material, but also gaining experience from two fresh mission formats and a novel mini-game interaction.

  • In the Stage Defense, a fresh take on the classic Defense mission, synchronize your guitar strings with the sound of gunfire. Protect Flare during their heartfelt memorial concert, held in honor of their bandmates who fell victim to Scaldra’s ruthless conquest of the city.

  • Get ready for the newest challenge in Warframe: the toughest mission type yet, Temporal Archimedea. Team up with Minerva and Velimir II for a sequence of three consecutive missions drawn at random. Use the Peely Pix system from Kaya to select modifiers that can be upgraded, altering the course of each attempt in the process.
