Warframe's Angels of the Zariman will explore Tenno origins

Warframe's New War expansion marked a seismic shift for the ever-changing space ninja game - the threat of the Sentients annihilating the Origin System forced new allegiances, as well as a trip into Tenno history with a visit to the Zariman Ten Zero. In Angels of the Zariman, Warframe will give players the chance to dig into that piece of their characters' past further - and it's adding new game modes, new characters, and all new narrative twists and turns.


"We were really fortunate with the reception to the Zariman segment of the New World quest, it really gave us confidence to go further," says Rebecca Ford, Warframe's live operations and community director. "That was a lucky preview that reinforced that we were on the right track."


Originally, Ford tells us, Digital Extremes had hoped to include more of the Zariman in The New War. "The thing that no one will believe is that we wanted to have the Zariman playable with the New War, but we were like, no, we need to put more into it," she says. "Now we're in April, and all the pieces are there for it and we're releasing it, but it took about a month to really reorient and make sure that we were hitting a content bar that players want for their post-New War world."

Warframe Angels of the Zariman release date - Gyre hits soon

Today Digital Extremes reveals the Warframe Angels of the Zariman release date, so players now know when they'll be able to get their hands on the next Warframe expansion - as well as the "elegant" new warframe Gyre, who's here to remind us why this is still one of the best ninja games on PC.


The multiplayer game's latest expansion will carry on the storyline from last year's epic The New War, and is the next major part of Digital Extremes' plans for Warframe in 2022. The studio previously said that Angels of the Zariman would release this month, and it confirmed today that it's still happening - as well as giving further details.


The highlight is the 49th warframe Gyre, which has an "energetic playstyle" based on electrical attacks. Abilities include launching a high damage "Gyratory Sphere", a critical and regenerative burst, and an electric shield that shocks enemies and sends out "a large electrical discharge" if the player receives a critical hit.

Angels of the Zariman

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[h3]CHALLENGE THE VOID[/h3]

Venture into the very heart of the Zariman and explore unique locations like the Crystalith social hub. Here you can meet new characters and friends, customize your own Dormizone apartment, or jump seamlessly into three challenging new Endless Mission types—including thrilling spins on Warframe's classic four-player Missions. Be prepared, though. Mysterious and terrifying new enemies stalk the Zariman's abandoned halls.

[h3]UNLEASH THE ARSENAL OF THE ZARIMAN[/h3]

You won’t be alone amidst the darkness. Take on deadly new threats with three brand-new evolving Zariman Weapons, and complete objectives to unlock powerful upgrades, including alt-fire modes.

The Zariman being a peaceful colony ship, these weapons are ceremonial, crafted from wood taken from the immense Orokin forests on Earth. However, like the Tenno themselves, time spent in proximity to the Void has corrupted these Weapons and they are ripe with the potential for change.

Complete Missions and defeat enemies to siphon the power of the Void into your Weapons, and witness them transform in the Untime’s own image!



[h3]MASTER THE ELEGANT GYRE WARFRAME[/h3]

Annihilate enemies with the conductivity of coils and transmitters and build unstoppable momentum as the 49th Warframe, Gyre. Keep her energetic playstyle in check to control the flow of any Mission and have a chance to deal critical damage for each Electrical status that affects the enemy.



Wield Gyre’s Arsenal of choice with the Gyre Collection, containing the Triodic Syandana and her signature Alternox Rifle, capable of launching electric spheres at enemies or striking from a distance with a long-range lightning bolt.



[h3]GYRE WARFRAME ABILITIES[/h3]ARCSPHERE

Launch a Gyratory Sphere that will deal high damage on impact and periodically deal electrical shocks to nearby enemies. Hitting at least 3 enemies with the initial launch enhances damage.

COIL HORIZON

Throw forward a Gyratory Sphere that will implode after 2 seconds, or can be manually triggered.

CATHODE GRACE

Gain a brief burst of increased Critical Chance and Energy Regen, with each kill extending duration of Cathode Grace. Casting is on a cooldown.

ROTORSWELL

Gyre’s mechanisms spin at incredible speeds, generating an Electric Field that shocks nearby enemies. When Gyre gets a critical hit, a large electrical discharge will chain from the enemy that was hit to nearby enemies.



[h3]CUSTOMIZE YOUR DORMIZONE[/h3]

Carve out a personal sanctuary with brand-new Dormizones! With the help of the remaining souls left in the Chrysalith, outfit your Dormizone with Decorations and soundscapes to really make it feel like home.

Increase your Standing in the Chrysalith and you’ll even be able to unlock new rooms with stunning Vistagraphs.



[h3]REINFORCE YOUR ARSENAL[/h3]

Add new Weapons, Customizations, Boosters and more to your Arsenal with new Emergence and Chrysalith Supporter Packs! Venture into the dark of the Zariman with the evolving Tenno badge of honor, the Vasero Sekhara, the striking Hespar Scythe and much more.

[h3]OPERATOR FOCUS SCHOOL REWORK[/h3]

Focus Schools are receiving a total overhaul in Angels of the Zariman! The aim is to give all existing Schools a more defined identity and playstyle while giving you more options for active Abilities, instead of passive Energy Drains, as well as making combat flow between Operator and Warframe even more seamless. All Focus points will be refunded back to the school it was invested in when Angels of the Zariman launches!

Eximus Enemies appear in Missions across the Origin System and the Zariman is no different.

Angels of the Zariman, which takes us to the Zariman Ten Zero ship directly following the events of The New War, brings with it a whole new hub for us to explore, as well as a story-critical quest that’ll establish what the player can expect in the future.

First up, there’s the quest. As mentioned above, it alongside the rest of the update will be dropping April 27, with the quest itself only available to players who’ve beaten The New War which acts as a bottleneck for all future content updates.
