“2023 is, and continues to be, a historic year for Warframe. Not only have we celebrated our 10th year Anniversary surrounded by our incredible community, we’ve set the stage for many more years of stories to tell,” stated Rebecca Ford, Creative Director on Warframe.

“Community has always come first for Warframe, and we will continue to make the game that we want to play. Telling the next chapter in the Warframe story continues to be an honor – and we’re on track to deliver cross platform saves, a long requested (and promised) feature.”

“Being able to showcase what we’re working on this far out is one of the things our team loves about our community and TennoCon in general,” said Steve Sinclair, Digital Extremes’ Chief Creative Officer.

“We couldn’t let this show pass by without giving Tenno and future Envoys alike a deeper dive into some of the combat, character systems, and environments we’ve been hard at work on in Soulframe. Rest assured we will have a lot more to talk about in 2024.”
