Caliban Prime Access

From the shards of a once powerful alliance comes Caliban Prime, arriving on August 26 to all platforms! Embody the magnificent union between Orokin grace and Sentient design while wielding his signature Prime Weapons, exclusive Prime Accessories and more.

In a twist as unique as Caliban himself, this Prime access will also include a brand-new Prime weapon not based on any existing instrument of war: the Vadarya Prime. Deliver the twin kingdom's united fury in a hail of lightning with this entirely unique sniper rifle.

Caliban Prime

Forged in celebration of the all-too-brief peace between the Orokin and Sentients, Caliban Prime is a true collaborative masterpiece. The heir of twin kingdoms arises in royal gold.

Venato Prime

Fashioned from the willingly-donated bone of the Sentient Ur-Hatho and embellished by Orokin luxurator Sembik Vol, Venato Prime was to be wielded against “common enemies” of the united peoples – had any ever emerged from the darkness beyond Tau.

Vadarya Prime

Caliban Prime's signature sniper rifle is no mere ceremonial weapon. A sign, perhaps, that peace between Orokin and Sentient was destined to be fleeting. Struck enemies become lightning rods, with a chance to attract bolts of chain lightning that can jump to nearby enemies.

Exclusive Caliban Prime Glyphs

Caliban Prime Accessories include:

"Neurovyre Prime Syandana
Tauron Prime Regalia
90-Day Affinity Booster
90-Day Resource Booster"

Enjoy the greatest value with the Caliban Prime Access Complete pack, which includes the Caliban Prime Warframe, his Prime Weapons and Accessories, as well as Platinum!

Warframe turned BG3's "unf**kable" narrator into a badass, romancable heroine

I met Amelia Tyler in the restroom at Tennocon, Warframe's annual community event. The stars aligned an hour before my allocated interview slot with her (the interview did not take place in said restroom, to clarify) and it felt like, as a result, we'd formed a bond forged in fire and bad-smelling soap. In many ways, our newfound friendship felt akin to the ones I'd formed in Baldur's Gate 3 with Astarion, Lae'zel, and my beloved Shadowheart: a chance meeting that changed, in BG3's case, the course of history, and in our case, the general vibe of our interview (and potentially history, too). It's a relationship that you never quite have with the narrator of Faerûn's greatest tale to date; she's a faceless whisper, tempting and dissuading in her own way. She isn't a visible entity like Karlach, Wyll, and company, but she is still a character in her own right.

Dog Days 2025

Get ready to soak up the sun and partake in a seaside scrimmage to remember as Dog Days is now live!
[hr][/hr]

[h3]Event Changes[/h3]
Your favorite excuse to soak up the sun is also making waves with significant changes that will make this year’s Event more accessible than ever.

Many returning items in Nakak’s shop for Nakak Pearls will receive discounts
You can sort Nakak Pearl offerings by item name, latest additions and price
Several adjustments made to the Soaktron, including increased clip size, rate of fire, projectile range and improvements to reloading! The Soaktron also has a standard ammo pool now, meaning you do not need to replenish it at refill stations and comes equipped with the "perfect reload" mechanic that can speed up reload time if timed correctly
Lob Blobs have a higher damage output and damage radius

[hr][/hr]
[h3]Floaty of Fury Alerts[/h3]
Special weekend Alerts will appear throughout August and will be held within the Star Chart, outside of the Dog Days node, and as an additional way to earn some Nakak Pearls:

Aug. 7 - 11: Crossfire Exterminate (Mercury) - 175 Nakak Pearls + 50K Credits
Aug. 14 - 18: Mobile Defense (Deimos) - 175 Nakak Pearls + 50K Credits
Aug. 21 - 25: Sabotage (Mars) - 175 Nakak Pearls + 50K Credits

Please note: This is the first time we’ve held an Alert on the Shrine Defense node! The alert will be visible but not functional, in the World State Window even if you don’t have the node unlocked. Unlocking the node will allow you to play the Alert!

You'll also enjoy more beachside flair during Floaty of Fury Alerts and Dog Days Alerts, as the Noodletron Hammer itself will override melee weapons for all players within the event for fun!
