Digital Extremes :
LONDON, Ontario – Nov. 13, 2024 – Digital Extremes’ next Prime Warframe debuts today with Xaku Prime Access, arriving for all platforms, followed by the return of the popular Höllvania Central Mall social hub on Thursday, November 14 ahead of Warframe: 1999’s launch. Revoke the abyss and return with the power of a technocratic empire as Xaku Prime arrives with increased shields, armor, energy, and sprint speed stats, as well as an extra Aura mod slot.
Awash in signature gold trim, Xaku Prime Access debuts with:
Xaku, the amalgamation of three long-forgotten Warframes, has been fused together with their shattered remains into a new form. The three original Warframes were once warriors acting as beneficiaries of the Entrati family until an unknown event lost them to the abyss of the Void… until now. Together, they form a “family” of their own, creating a new triskelion being that no one in the Origin System has ever seen before.
Xaku wields the enigmatic and unknowable nature of the Void as their own, steals weapons of nearby enemies with Lovecraftian tendrils, converts their attacks to Void damage, then cycles through three long-lost abilities to control enemies’ perception of reality, and sheds the remnants of the three forgotten Warframes to use as explosive shrapnel.
Equip the latest in Prime weaponry: the Warfan Quassus Prime and Rifle Trumna Prime.
Additional cosmetic items available when Xaku Prime launches include: the Artifex Syandana and the highly anticipated Necra Operator suit. For complete information on the packs available, visit warframe.com/prime-access.
Players can earn Xaku Prime for free, along with their signature weapons, by collecting the required Blueprint, components, and Void Relics and crafting them in the Foundry.
Return to one of Warframe’s biggest social hubs tomorrow, the Höllvania Central Mall:
After popular demand, the temporary social hub relay returns to Earth for players to socialize, dance to boyband sensation On-lyne, and count down to the launch of Warframe: 1999.
The Höllvania Central Mall will remain in game until Friday, Dec. 6 at 11 A.M. ET.
