Warframe 1999 gets a new, tighter launch window as huge update approaches

Warframe 1999 promises to be the free-to-play shooter's biggest update ever, with loads of new features, big reworks, and of course a new world that's dripping with '90s goodness. A new developer livestream has today unveiled plenty more exciting additions and showcased some more gameplay. It's also provided us with a better idea of when it will drop but while Digital Extremes isn't giving an exact date just yet, it has at least narrowed down its release window.

Warframe: 1999 Coming In December

Make sure you're up-to-date on everything we've revealed so far by visiting the official Warframe: 1999 website. Get your account ready and check out our official Quest Guide to ensure that you'll be able to jump straight into the action on launch day!


If you can't wait until then and need a taste of 1999 to hold you over, you can log in right now and try your hand at our playable demo. Get a feel for Arthur's Weaponry and turbo-charged Atomicycle as you battle Scaldra through the streets of Hӧllvania.

December just can't come soon enough…

Calendar Seasons System



1999 will utilize a new playable Calendar system similar to The Circuit in Duviri, but themed according to 4 changing Seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. Each week in 1999 will represent a new "Season," and gameplay will vary.

Stay tuned for more details on what we have in store!

Technocyte Coda Deep Dive



As with the Grineer and Corpus before them, the Infestation will enjoy its own Adversary system when 1999 launches, called the "Technocyte Coda." Noticeably different from Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos, the Technocyte Coda system will nonetheless enable Tenno to earn a new suite of ultra-powerful Infested Weaponry.

Check out our Technocyte Coda Deep Dive for more details!

Gemini Series Skins: Amir, Lettie



During TennoCon 2024, we revealed Arthur's transforming Gemini Series Skin and watched him morph in real-time from Protoframe to Warframe. Now we have two more transforming Skins to tempt you with: those of Lettie (Trinity) and Amir (Volt)!

See them for yourself right here.

New Atomicycle, Drifter Customizations




Your Atomicycle will be more than just a means of traversing Hӧllvania — it also marks a whole new platform for Fashion Frame! Customize your ride with 11 different Skins and embrace the need for speed.



You'll be able to personalize your Drifter, as well! Give them an athletic, military, Y2K, or goth aesthetic thanks to a broad new suite of Customization options.
