Digital Extremes is inviting all Tenno to a celebration of all things Warframe, and an interactive first look at The New War Expansion, at this year’s TennoCon.
Players who brave cyberspace again this year and jump into the latest TennoCon will be delighted to hear that Digital Extremes is set to unveil a sliver of The New War expansion for Warframe. The first-ever gameplay reveal of this new content update will hit airwaves during the fan-favorite TennoLive broadcast, on Saturday 17 July. Going live on Twitch at 5PM ET, this epic event will also reward players with a Prime Warframe just for satisfying their curiosity.
While it might not be much of a surprise that The New War is coming to TennoCon, this annual gathering of Warframe fans from across the globe still manages to find a way to hype up the crowds, and it seems the team at Digital Extremes are plenty excited for what’s to come too.
“As most players know by now, we’re bringing The New War back to TennoCon! It’s going to be a special moment for all of us, as it’s been a while since we first discussed this expansion with players. We truly hope Tenno will enjoy a day dedicated to them and the memorable experiences we’ve shared together in Warframe”, said Sheldon Carter, Chief Operating Officer at DE. “There’s plenty of new and exciting reveals to be made, but players will have to tune-in to TennoLive to find out more. We have an engaging and interactive broadcast planned that will provide something for everyone, plus there’s a Loki Prime Drop.”
The Loki Prime drop will arrive for players logging in to watch, as detailed below:

An in-game Relay event will provide attendees with a place to unite with friends from around the world, play with the studio, and unlock a one-time interactive preview opportunity that features a sneak peek of exclusive new content. There is also a special reward just for this event.

While The New War might have been announced way back at TennoCon 2018, we know the slowly slowly approach is deliberate and it will eventually bring old enemies back to the fight in a way we haven’t seen before. Suffice to say I’ll be tuning in to find out how during TennoCon 2021.
