Digital Extremes Unveils Warframe: Tau and Soulframe's Warsongs

The TennoCon reveals point to major narrative shifts plus new gameplay systems that will roll out in seasonal updates.

Overview

  • Digital Extremes used TennoCon on July 11–12 to show Warframe: Tau and confirm Tau will arrive later in 2026, introducing a new Star Chart and at least two launch regions.
  • Tau’s opening area, Fornax, is a noir, Sentient‑run ring city built around themes of addiction and crime and it will add new mission types, enemy archetypes, and open‑hub play.
  • Players will meet Brysko, a detective-style Chimera Warframe voiced by Matthew Mercer, and can play Warframe’s first in‑game card mini‑game, Portau, during Tau content.
  • Soulframe’s Warsongs Fable was announced with a corrupted progression path called the Vadagar Pact, the Mendicant Reinbreaker boss, mounts coming to Preludes, and a fishing mini‑game.
  • Digital Extremes opened a limited sign-up window for Soulframe Preludes that closed July 12, gave early access to registrants, and said remaining features and seasonal releases will arrive in staged rollouts through fall and later devstreams.
