Warframe Announces Iceblade of Narin Update for September 23 Release

The free patch expands cooperative play, changes core systems, and starts a one‑time community operation to prepare players for the upcoming Tau chapter.

Overview

  • Digital Extremes confirmed on Friday that the Iceblade of Narin update will be free and launch on September 23, 2026 across all platforms.
  • The update introduces Narin, Warframe’s 66th Warframe, an ice‑themed frame with close‑range blade and ice crowd‑control abilities shown by the studio’s design team.
  • New cooperative content includes a six‑player mode called Glacial Defiance, a relay hub named Narin’s Crest on Yuvan Peak, and Entropic Eximus enemies that drop Entropic Kuva for exchange with the in‑game vendor Cephalon Melica.
  • Systems and monetization changes include Citrine Prime Access, Riven mod features that let players lock and merge stats, a Banshee rework with a free Banshee and Forma for players who log in between September 23 and October 7, and a simultaneous launch on the Samsung Galaxy Store with limited login rewards.
  • Digital Extremes will run Epoch Operation: Taubound as a once‑only community event from October 15 to November 17 to gather resources and narrative progress for the Tau chapter, and a live teaser site is available now offering in‑game challenges that award an Honoria for completion.
