Warframe's TennoCon 2024: A Blast from the Past with Warframe: 1999!
This year's TennoCon delivered some incredible reveals, none bigger than Warframe: 1999, a massive update set in a retro-futuristic 1999. Get ready for a wild ride through a Techrot-infested city teetering on the brink of a Y2K apocalypse!
But first, a prologue! The Lotus Eaters quest arrives in August 2024, reuniting us with a beloved Warframe character and setting the stage for the 1999 adventure. This prologue also introduces Sevatgoth Prime and their unique weapons. Completing The Lotus Eaters is crucial for accessing Warframe: 1999, slated for release in Winter 2024.
Warframe: 1999 plunges players into an alternate 1999 where the Y2K bug is a deadly virus. Explore the vibrant, yet corrupted, city of Höllvania, navigating its Techrot-infested streets on Atomicyles – futuristic vehicles capable of bullet jumps, drifts, and even serving as makeshift explosives! Command a team of six unique characters, the Hex, each sporting a Protoframe Warframe showcasing their human form.
Meet Arthur (Excalibur), Aoi (Mag), Quincy (CYTE-09), and more, brought to life by an impressive voice cast including Alpha Takahashi, Ben Starr, Melissa Medina, and Amelia Tyler. Connect with them in a truly 1999 way – instant messaging!
Prepare for a showdown with On-lyne, a 90s boy band turned infected foes, led by the charismatic Zeke (voiced by Nick Apostolides). Their infectious music is available now on major streaming services!
Fashion is key in Warframe: 1999! Dual fashion frame loadouts and the introduction of Gemini Skins allow players to bring their favorite Protoframes, like Arthur and Aoi, into the Origin System, complete with fully-voiced lines.
Beyond the main event, Digital Extremes is partnering with THE LINE animation studio on a Warframe: 1999 anime short. Plus, grab the stunning Ember Heirloom skin now, with a Rhino skin coming early 2025!
