Techrot Encore Coming March 19

The signal is stronger than ever, Tenno — Techrot Encore arrives on March 19 at 11 a.m. ET for all platforms!

Bear witness to the infectious Technocyte Coda’s on-stage debut, take on an all-new challenges in Temporal Archimedea, bring down the house with Temple’s ruinous riffs, and plenty more in what might be our biggest Echoes Update yet, you will! Let’s go into a bit more detail in the sections below.

[h3]New Warframe: Temple[/h3]



Taking cues from glam rock legends of decades past, Temple is all about wielding the awesome power of guitar licks to shred through opponents. Each of their harmonious abilities result in a pyrotechnics show with deadly results!

Passive - Backbeat: Play abilities in sync with the Backbeat metronome to invigorate ability effects while increasing Ability Efficiency by 50%.

Ability 1 - Pyrotechnics: Blast targeted enemies with pillars of fire.

Ability 2 - Overdrive: Drive loudspeakers into epic distortion to create a damaging wave of Heat while also increasing vulnerability to Critical Chance.

Ability 3 - Ripper’s Wail: Rip on the guitar to make Temple briefly invulnerable while healing them. Ally’s weapons are lit-up with extra Heat Damage.

Ability 4 - Exalted Solo: Set Lizzie aflame and torch enemies with Heat. While aimed, Lizzie blasts enemies with thunderous elemental sound waves, use ability controls to change the Elemental Damage type.

[h3]New Protoframes[/h3]



It would seem Albrecht Entrati's shadow over Höllvania extends further than previously thought, as Techrot Encore is adding four brand-new Protoframes, including new Gemini Skins and Gemini Emotes for Saryn, Frost, Nova, and Temple.

[h4]Minerva[/h4]

A former Libertatian military agent, Minerva is used to her orders being followed… immediately. Cunning and beauty in equal measure, the Protoframe of Saryn has arrived in Höllvania.

[h4]Velimir[/h4]

A resolute veteran of many conflicts, Velimir's frigid exterior quickly melts for those he is close to. The Protoframe of Frost brings a human face to an icy Warframe.

[h4]Kaya[/h4]

Capable and cocky, Kaya is an engineering genius, despite being the youngest of the group. The Protoframe of Nova is eager to put her newfound powers of matter manipulation into practice.

[h4]Flare[/h4]

Flare has transcended merely creating art, and thanks to Albrecht Entrati and the Technocyte Virus, they have become the art. The Protoframe of Temple is a spectacle that has to be seen to be believed.

[h3]Technocyte Coda[/h3]



At long last, the boys are in sync and there’s no turning back — the Technocyte Coda make their on-stage debut to shatter your resolve with lethal, ear-piercing beats. Take on this show-stopping challenge to earn new Coda Weapons and Customizations! For a more in-depth look, check out our Technocyte Coda deep dive article!

[h3]Temporal Archimedea[/h3]



For those looking for a steep challenge, this twist on Deep Archimedia should do the trick! You will be able to spice up Missions with "Peely Pix" stickers that apply unique modifiers. Keep in mind that these outings will undoubtedly require powerful loadouts and a healthy degree of coordination with your squadmates to clear.

[h3]New KIM Conversations[/h3]



What better way to get to know the new Protoframes than with a little back-and-fourth chat? While Minerva, Velimir, Kaya, and Flare are not romanceable, you can still deepen your bonds as well as strengthen their ties to The Hex and each other. Who knows? Maybe they’ll even give you some hints about the past and future of other characters in the world of Warframe...

Warframe 1999's colossal new update adds Temple, two new modes, boyband bosses

Warframe 1999 is, for me, the coolest thing to come out of the game in years. Set in the Germanic-style world of Höllvania, the update added everything from a dating simulator to an infested boy band, and is the sole reason I chose to pick up my katana and dive on into the Origin System. But Arthur and the Hex's story isn't over yet, as Techrot Encore is bringing a lot of new 1999-themed content, continuing the saga and expanding out the game's already impressive roster. With the release date finally set in stone, we caught up with design director Pablo Alonso to talk all things Techrot and Temple.
