In the latest Warframe developer stream, Digital Extremes has revealed what Tenno can expect in the upcoming Duviri update, The Seven Crimes of Kullervo. This includes the highly anticipated Wisp Prime, the introduction of Kullervo, a new Warframe, along with various other Quality of Life changes and updates.
Wisp Prime Emerges
In an exciting development, Wisp Prime was announced as the next Warframe, with a launch expected later this year via Prime Access. Wisp enthusiasts can anticipate accompanying Prime Weapons and Accessories, including Fulmin Prime, Gunsen Prime, and Prime Motes. Wisp Prime will also debut with a Prime Syandana and Operator/Drifter Suit.
The Seven Crimes of Kullervo Unveiled
Named distinctly from traditional “Echoes” updates, The Seven Crimes of Kullervo brings a wealth of content for players. Kullervo, the 53rd Warframe, brings new dynamics to gameplay with his Signature Shotgun, unique customizations, and distinctive melee-focused kit that offers superior mobility and innovative AOE mechanics.
The update also introduces a “Dungeon” Island in Duviri, hosting a time-limited event upon launch. Players can explore the Island as a side-objective or make it the focus of their story bounties. The island features a mini-boss fight against Kullervo, with victory resulting in the drop of a resource exchangeable for Kullervo’s blueprints.
Additional content includes the Gauss Deluxe Collection, Static Undercroft Portals, and TennoGen, among other features.
Quality of Life Improvements
To enhance the Duviri experience, previously locked Undercroft portals become accessible to players upon acquiring 7 Decrees. Offering increased challenges but lucrative rewards, the portals present an alternate path to acquiring Duviri Arcanes. Furthermore, Teshin’s Cave is getting an upgrade to allow players to preview available Weapons and Warframes from the Star Chart.
The update introduces a gardening system where players receive six randomly generated plants daily, offering a novel resource generation mechanism. Ten new regular Decrees and 5 ‘Corrupted’ Decrees will also be introduced, providing more gameplay variation.
Additional changes include the return of Kaithe Racing, new puzzles across Duviri, and changes to Maw Fishing based on community feedback. Lore enthusiasts can expect new secrets and Easter eggs scattered throughout Duviri.
Cosmetics and Customizations
Fashion-conscious Tenno will be pleased with the new Gauss Deluxe skin inspired by Hermes. The update also brings a unique Origami-inspired Drifter Suit and a batch of TennoGen releases from community artists.
Further Developments
In other news, an official Warframe Art Book is in progress, and cross-save functionality is actively being worked on. The team also confirmed plans to address community feedback on Soma’s Incarnon and future Incarnon additions.
