Warframe: 1999 Is Out This Winter, Will Add Romance System
Ahead of TennoCon 2024, Digital Extremes held a media preview of the Warframe: 1999 content that would be unveiled during the Canadian convention.

The developers are holding the following update 'closer to the chest' and will only reveal it during the Tokyo Game Show (slated for September 26-29). The only thing they were able to say at this time is that it will include a new Warframe and some pretty substantial quality-of-life enhancements, such as a Caliban rework and free access to base Caliban. The truly big one, though, will be the newly added ability to favorite items in the UI. Additionally, the Fall update will introduce new Incarnons and the Companions 2.0 Part 2 overhaul.
