Warframe: 1999 Unveils Techrot Encore Release Date, Adds More Content and Characters

The excitement for Warframe's 1999 expansion continues to build, and the upcoming Techrot Encore update, slated for release on March 19th, is adding even more to the mix. Set in the nostalgic turn of the millennium, this update not only brings back the beloved ARG band as thrilling boss battles but also introduces a wealth of new content to the game.

Techrot Encore introduces four new Protoframes to the roster: Flare, Minerva, Kaya, and Velimir II, each bringing unique abilities to the fray. Alongside these, the 60th Warframe, Temple, makes a grand entrance with its Techrot Subwoofer minions and a sapient guitar named Lizzie, promising to shake the foundations of any battlefield.

For those who crave a challenge, two new endgame stages await. In Stage Defense, players will protect Scaldra during a poignant memorial show for fallen comrades amidst Scaldra's takeover of the city. On the other hand, Temporal Archimedea offers a dynamic experience where players, teamed with Minerva and Velimir II, tackle three consecutive random missions, with the Peely Pix system adding a twist by altering modifiers each time.

In a touching tribute, Digital Extremes honors the Make-A-Wish commitment from James Conlin with the introduction of the Atomicycle racing mini-game at the Höllvania Mall Hub's Ollie's Crash Course arcade. This addition adds a fun and heartfelt element to the Warframe universe.

With the anticipation building towards Tennocon 2025 and the relaunch of the upgraded Warframe Companion App in open beta, there's no shortage of reasons for Warframe fans to be excited this March. The Techrot Encore update promises to deliver a rich experience that blends nostalgia, action, and innovation.
