TennoCon 2024 Drops New Footage And Info For Warframe: 1999

One of the major highlights for TennoCon 2024 was a look at Warframe: 1999, as we learned more about the characters, gameplay, and story.

The biggest highlight from the first day of TennoCon 2024 came in the Warframe: 1999 presentation, as we got to see what the new Narrative Chapter had to offer. The short version, for those who haven't been delving into the hints, is that a virus has taken over the world in an alternate 1999. The devs from Digital Extremes showed off everything from that experience with 20 minutes of gameplay from the opening segment, along with a number of other previews for the content to come. We have all of the info released by the team today for this preview, as well as several videos for you to check out of that gameplay, the music, the Heirlooms, and more.
