Get ready for a blast from the past! Warframe: 1999 is coming, and it's bringing a whole new level of retro-futuristic action to the Origin System. This massive update plunges you into a 1999 prologue this August, setting the stage for a thrilling adventure.
First up, the prologue quest, "The Lotus Eaters," reunites us with a beloved Warframe character, bridging the gap between past and present and introducing the world of 1999. This also marks the arrival of Sevatgoth Prime and their exclusive weapons. Completing "The Lotus Eaters" is essential to unlock the full 1999 experience, launching in Winter 2024.

Warframe: 1999 takes place in the alternate-reality 1999, where the Y2K bug isn't just a glitch—it's a deadly virus threatening to unravel reality. The setting? Höllvania, a vibrant 90s city corrupted by Techrot. Navigate this neon-drenched landscape on the new Atomicyles, futuristic vehicles capable of bullet jumps, drifts, and even explosive maneuvers. Leading the charge is the Hex, a team of six heroes, each piloting a unique Protoframe—a Warframe showcasing the human pilot within.
Meet Arthur (Excalibur), Aoi (Mag), Quincy (the new CYTE-09), and more, brought to life by an all-star cast including Alpha Takahashi, Ben Starr, Melissa Medina, and Amelia Tyler. Connect with them in a truly 90s way—through instant messaging! The right moves might even lead to a New Year's kiss.

Get ready to face off against the ultimate 90s antagonist: On-lyne, a five-piece boy band infected by Technocyte Coda. Their infectious tunes are available now on all major streaming platforms – check out their hit single, "Party of Your Lifetime!"
Fashion is key in Warframe, and 1999 delivers major upgrades. Equip two fashion frame loadouts and switch between them seamlessly. The introduction of Gemini Skins lets you bring Protoframes like Arthur and Aoi into the Origin System, complete with pages of fully voiced lines for combat and casual conversation. This expands the stellar voice acting and adds a new dimension to your favorite Warframes.

Beyond the core update, Digital Extremes is collaborating with THE LINE to produce an anime short based on Warframe: 1999, launching later this year. Plus, grab stunning Heirloom skins for Ember (available now!) and Rhino (coming early 2025).
With Warframe: 1999 arriving in Winter 2024, there's plenty to look forward to. Download Warframe now from the App Store and prepare for the ultimate retro-futuristic adventure!
