Moframe is an Annual Event held to bring awareness to men's health in partnership with The Movember Foundation.
From the 1st to the 30th of November, moustache cosmetics can be found on the market for 1. These fuzzy facial additions are equipped in the Warframe's auxiliary cosmetic slot and can only be worn during November, being removed from the player's inventory on December 1st.
The first two events in 2014 and 2015 added the moustache cosmetics to the game, having been achieved by donation-goals from fundraisers hosted on WARFRAME's website.
Since 2020 WARFRAME's founding company Digital Extremes has donated to the The Movember Foundation on behalf of the players.
2014[]
Beginning in 2014 Digital Extremes created a fundraiser for The Movember Foundation. Movember is an event that encourages those involved to grow out their facial hair and show it off for the whole month of November.
As WARFRAME is a virtual platform, this archived fundraiser unlocked a total of five moustache cosmetics for all players to wear once achieving several donation goals.
Ending December 1st, a total of $11,219 was raised for The Movember Foundation.
World Record Attempt[]
On November 14th of 2014, Digital Extremes hosted an event to get the World Record of the largest gathering of people wearing fake moustaches simultaneously in a videogame.
It required players to post screenshots of their Warframes wearing moustache cosmetics to the forums between 3-4 PM EST. During this time, players were allowed to join the DE Dojos on each platform for a moustache-themed party. The total number of verified participants ended at 10,899, achieving the current World Record.
Contests[]
A total of 3 contests were held in 2014: the Master Of Mustache Pick-Up Line Contest, the Grineer 'stache Creation Contest and the Mustache Social Contest.
The Master Of Mustache Pick-Up Line Contest was held from November 3rd to the 13th, it required players to screenshot their warframes wearing a moustache and edit the image to have them say a moustache-related pick-up line. The top 3 winners would receive 1,000 each.
The Grineer 'stache Creation Contest started on November 14th and ended November 20th. It called for players to photoshop moustaches onto screenshots of enemies and give the 'stache a warframe-related name. As with the first contest, the top 3 winners would also receive 1,000 each.
The Mustache Social Contest ran from November 21th until November 27th, asking Clans to gather their moustache-wielding players in their Clan Dojo and submit a photo of the event to the forums. The 3 winning Clans would receive 1,000 in their Clan Vaults.
