The Duviri Paradox[]
Coming to all platforms this Winter, The Duviri Paradox will throw you into a color-shifting landscape, unlike anything you've seen before.
Play as an outlaw known as the Drifter as you fight for a way to break free from Duviri's endless daily cycle of death and rebirth. Complete the cinematic Quest, meet characters new and old, claim powerful upgrades and ultimately wrest control of Duviri from the clutches of the tyrant Dominus Thrax.
As you explore the color-changing mood driven landscapes of Duviri under Dominus Thrax's control, you'll fight Dax Guards, complete requests, solve puzzles and be rewarded with Decrees, upgrades that boost your Drifters capabilities for the duration of that day's cycle. With the help of Teshin and with enough Decrees, the assistance of fellow Tenno and your loyal flying Kaithe mount, you may be able to challenge the fearsome Orowyrm itself.
The Duviri Paradox will take place before the events of The New War, allowing more players the ability to experience all that it has to offer. Look forward to more information about The Duviri Paradox in the coming months!
Players in-game got a first glimpse of The Duviri Paradox during the roughly 20-minute demo by joining us in the Duviri Amphitheater, a limited-time Relay Event that allowed Tenno to visit a slice of Duviri and explore some of the landscape along with a theatrical overview of story-driven moments.
Veilbreaker[]
Kahl is back! In Warframe's next thrilling Quest update, you'll take control of the heroic Grineer soldier Kahl-175. Having survived Erra's devastation of Cetus and lifted his Narmer Veil, Kahl decides to fight for his freedom and the freedom of his Grineer brothers.
Archons also return with deadly surprises to catch you unaware. Unite with your fellow Tenno to take them down, and lift the Veil once and for all! Veilbreaker is coming soon to all platforms.
Cross Play, Cross Save and Mobile[]
Warframe is continuing its path towards Cross Play, Cross Save, and mobile development as the team has spent the last year exploring Cross Play capabilities and performing internal testing.
With these steps forward comes our expansion into Community Testing and we are excited to announce that these tests will be happening this year.
In preparation for Cross Play and mobile releases, we will be synchronizing various systems starting with the Void Trader, Baro Ki'Teer. Inventories will become aligned for all platforms when Baro makes his scheduled visit starting July 29, 2022.
We are still deeply committed to the implementation of Cross Play and Cross Save and we are striving to let everyone across every platform play seamlessly from wherever and whenever they choose.
Soulframe[]
To close out the show, the team had one final announcement: Soulframe. Debuting with an over five-minute cinematic trailer, Soulframe is an entirely new game from Digital Extremes veterans that will feature open-world, co-op gameplay in its own independent and immersive fantasy experience.
While still in early development, Soulframe is a free-to-play Action Hybrid-MMORPG that features an entirely unique world with themes of nature, restoration and exploration. As a totally new game, Soulframe development will be transparent, collaborative and community-focused; leveraging the learning and growth over the last decade of success of Warframe.
Warframe Team Transition[]
As part of the Soulframe announcement, the team also announced that Steve Sinclair and Geoff Crookes along with select Warframe developers will expand their efforts onto Soulframe. Additionally, Steve will influence the franchise direction by defining a new generation of innovative online game experiences for players and fans of both sci-fi and fantasy.
Rebecca Ford, who has been with Digital Extremes since Warframe's beginning, and the voice of the Lotus, will be leading Warframe's charge into the future as Creative Director. This path forward allows us to be fully confident in both Soulframe and Warframe as development continues for years to come. Our commitment is to maintain service consistency and creative innovation for the continuation of a high-quality, player-focused game. Expect more top-tier updates, beginning with Veilbreaker and The Duviri Paradox.
