Every year, Digital Extremes Frame of war development Digital Extremes utilizes the fan conference TennoCon to highlight the game's community and give back to fans with engaging development lectures in addition to a ton of incredible announcements and revelations. TennoCon 2024 was no different at all.
Before TennoCon 2024, everyone anticipated that would be a major emphasis.1999 is the warframe. The next big expansion for the game is this one, but there were a ton of other surprises from the event, some of which will be available in .Warframe much faster than you would anticipate. Digital Extremes has shown throughout the event that it is working harder than ever to meet and even beyond user demand for new content as the game expands.
All of the information released at TennoCon 2024
I've highlighted every display at TennoCon 2024 down below. In addition to the two major gameplay demonstrations that were the absolute highlights of the program, there were a number of smaller announcements that you could have missed even if you watched the event live.
1999 Warframe demo and release schedule
We were all aware that the primary attraction of TennoCon 2024 would be a gameplay demonstration for Warframe: 1999. The sample tracks Arthur as he pursues a lead on a well-known figure who has sought sanctuary at this time, leaving a modest base where he and five other Protoframes are holed up.The demo, in my opinion, is fantastic since it highlights a distinctive aspect of the Warframe universe that draws a lot of inspiration from the 1990s. The greatest thing is that we'll be able to explore it later this year. The vintage style works nicely with the in-game history to create a world that seems genuine. This extension will be available in the winter of 2024. It seems fitting that we could get to play it as we count down to 2025, as the plot centers around the New Year's Eve countdown in 1999.
A Boyband Infested
Party of Your Lifetime, an original boyband song inspired by the 1990s and sung by Nick Apostolides, the voice actor for Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 4 Remake, is heard throughout the Warframe: 1999 demo. The song is now accessible on YouTube and should soon be available on Spotify. The boyband is made up of Infested characters that live in a stadium in the Sol System. We don't know much about how you'll interact with them.I anticipate that fans will feel the same way about the music, since it was a huge success with the press at the expansion preview event. Even though it seems absurd, the concept of a sci-fi zombie alien boyband works very well in Warframe.
WarframeThe initial romantic system of
1999 as the warframe includes six Protoframes in all, with Arthur, the player's control, being one of them. You may communicate with all the other Protoframes in the tale of the expansion by sending them messages and building a bond with them in order to get a kiss on New Year's Eve.Keep in mind that I only saw a hint of this throughout the gaming sample, and typing was the main activity. But I think it's great how Digital Extremes has revived the bygone era of MSN Messenger in a manner that seems real and significant to the narrative.
A new Warframe, Cyte-09
The Warframe: 1999 demo only gives us a quick look at him, but Cyte-09 is a new Warframe that will be included in this expansion. Players will be able to use this sharpshooter's abilities to search for riches from Void Relics, much as it hunted for treasure in a previous life, by using the new Gemini Skin System in contemporary combat.
Gemini Skin System along with fresh weaponry and mounts
The Gemini Skin System was one of the most unexpected revelations from the Warframe: 1999 demo. Because of this technique, this expansion has some of the most comprehensive voice acting ever recorded for Warframe. When the expansion launches this winter, you'll be able to quickly transition between a Protoframe skin and your contemporary Warframe.Every Protoframe will speak to you throughout battle, when you switch to them, and even while you're not utilizing them. Because the system saves your personalized setup for both your Warframe and Protoframe, it adds an extra level of customization to the game, which is excellent.The expansion also includes a mount called Atomicycle that you can unlock and summon at any time throughout the world. This future motorbike has the ability to avoid gunfire and make 90-degree spins. Ultimately, further weapons exist, such as the AX-52 Rifle, which is a grounded weaponry modelled from real-world firearms.
: Make a wish fulfillment1999
Warframe one ofVoice actors learned that one of the numerous youngsters the Make a Wish Foundation sponsors had requested to become a voice actor and needed fans. In order to capture and include this child's voice into Warframe: 1999, where they will be a permanent addition to the world fans may hear forever, the developer collaborated with the foundation at TennoCon 2024.The creator granted the first half of this want—having fans—by recording and adding voice to the game, but the community's support both at the event and at home granted the second part of the dream. The voice first appears in the demo for the expansion when Arthur approaches an arcade machine that sounds like it's about to start playing an alluring audio commercial for onlookers.
It's now time for Sevagoth Prime to make his way into Warframe. It looks beautiful, this updated and improved version of what I can only call the Warframe equivalent of death itself. When Prime Warframes are launched in August, you can get this one by buying Prime Access or breaking Void Relics, just as you can with other Prime Warframes. The mission The Lotus Eaters.
Heirloom Skins for Rhino and Ember that are Permanent
Ember and Rhino's high-fidelity Heirloom skins are coming back to Warframe and won't be restricted by time anymore. They are always up for grabs by anybody who wants to take them. While Rhino's is making a strong comeback in 2025, Ember's is now back in the game.
Warframe Update 2024 Unannounced
Apart from the The Lotus Eaters mission and Warframe: 1999, Digital Extremes said that players may anticipate another update for the game in 2024. I don't know anything about it other from its catchy moniker, Unnanounced Warframe Update 2024. We'll have to wait and see where it falls since things could change, but this update should come before the game's major expansion.
1999 as the warframe animation clip
The collaboration between Digital Extremes and The Line animation studio on a Warframe: 1999 anime short was finally revealed. I'm not sure what kind of tale the anime will tell, but it is planned to go further into the universe of the expansion and introduce Waframe to a new audience.
Soulframe
demo and fresh content for the Preludes Soulframe is the next game that Digital Extremes is developing; it has long been available in early access. New content will be added to this early access program, Soulframe Preludes, for participants to play through and provide feedback on.The Soulframe and These content, which included a new world boss to defeat, a new ancestor to save, and another significant boss teaser, were shown off during TennoCon 2024's devstream. The new boss is hideous, a hideous combination of a bear's torso and skull with moose heads for antlers.Since Soulframe is in early access, the developer hasn't specified when this new content will be added. However, the teaser offered us yet another intriguing glimpse into the game's universe, which I can't wait to learn more about.
TennoCon 2025 schedule disclosed
With TennoCon 2024 now behind us, let's focus on what lies ahead. TennoCon 2025 will take place in London, Ontario, Canada from July 18 to 19, 2024, according to a statement from Digital Extremes.
