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

Warframe enthusiasts, get ready for the much-anticipated 1999's Techrot Encore update, slated for release on March 19th. This expansion promises to keep fans engaged with its turn-of-the-millennium setting and action-packed gameplay.

The update introduces four new Protoframes to the roster: Flare, Minerva, Kaya, and Velimir II, each bringing their distinct abilities to the fray. Additionally, the 60th Warframe, Temple, makes its debut, armed with Techrot Subwoofer minions and a sapient guitar named Lizzie, ready to amplify the chaos.

Temporal Archimedea presents a dynamic challenge, teaming you up with Minerva and Velimir II for three consecutive random missions, where the Peely Pix system spices things up with varying modifiers each time.

In a heartwarming addition, Digital Extremes honors a Make-A-Wish commitment from James Conlin with the introduction of the Atomicycle racing mini-game at the Höllvania Mall Hub's arcade collection, Ollie's Crash Course.
