During its TennoCon 2025 showcase, Digital Extremes unveiled “The Old Peace”, a massive upcoming expansion for Warframe sending players to the long-rumored Tau star system.
What we know so far
- Epic new frontier: Explore the newly revealed Tau system, that’s been teased in lore for years.
- Deeper narrative focus: Dive into rich memory-based stories involving the Operator, Lotus, Loid, and even a Sentient named Adis. Expect drama when a rebellion erupts on one of Tau’s moons.
- Launch date & roadmap:
- Late 2025: “The Old Peace” arrives.
- This fall: Co-developed quest “The Teacher” (with Sumo Digital) debuts, aimed at easing newcomers into Warframe’s complex modding mechanics.
- New Warframe: Meet Uriel, plus a standalone quest starring Uriel and new Protoframes of Harrow and Wisp dubbed the “Devil’s Triad”.
- More updates are expected during October’s developer livestream.
🎮 Why this matters
This is Warframe’s most ambitious update yet—opening up a brand-new star system, introducing playable memory-dive narrative arcs, teaching modding mechanics, and adding flashy new frames. Digital Extremes has turned its co-op shooter into a sprawling sci-fi RPG powerhouse, and this expansion cements its position as a genre-defying live-service title.
For long-time players, “The Old Peace” promises fresh lore and mechanics in unexplored space. New players get a dedicated quest to ease them into the modding rabbit hole—no small feat for a game known for its steep learning curve. And dramatic arcs like the Tau rebellion will likely have major ripples in the wider Warframe universe.
Keep your eyes peeled for:
- Early details from October’s livestream
- Community sneak peeks or beta announcements
- A full trailer or gameplay walkthrough arriving ahead of the fall “Teacher” quest
This expansion isn’t just another content drop—it’s a major world-building moment for Warframe. If you’re a Tenno, mark your calendars!
At the same event, there was also buzz about a Superman‑adjacent game starring Krypto, though that’s more speculation at this stage . But for today’s bonafide update, Warframe’s “The Old Peace” is stealing the spotlight.
What are your thoughts? Are you excited to explore Tau, jump into that new quest, or take Uriel for a spin?
