Warframe’s highly anticipated expansion, The New War, will be in full display at Digital Extremes’ Tennocon 2021 event this coming Saturday, July 17.
Developer Digital Extremes is set to showcase the game’s next expansion and it will be an interactive preview via a “Relay” event.
It means players worldwide will not only have first-hand experience of the upcoming expansion but have the chance to party up with some of the folks from DE as well.
The New War is going to push the game’s story forward in a huge way. It was first revealed in 2018 but its development and release were hampered because of undisclosed reasons. One likely reason is due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which has messed up the development timelines for some games.

TennoCon is an annual event that brings Warframe fans together. Although this year’s convention is going to be an all-digital affair, the folks at DE have a lot in store for the community.
The live event will start at 12:30 p.m. EST via Twitch. However, if you just want to watch the reveal of The New War, then just stay tuned starting 5 p.m. EST.
Although you can certainly just watch the livestream at any time, there are specific items that will be rewarded to players when they watch the online event for at least 30 consecutive minutes.
For instance, those who tune in from 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. EST are eligible to receive the Vastilok Gunblade.
Those who watch for 30 consecutive minutes from 5 p.m. EST onward will get the Loki Prime Warframe and add it to their collection.
Fans who have the patience to complete the livestream from start to finish will get the Tannukai Longsword Skin and the Tannukai Armor set.
All of the items mentioned can only be acquired via Twitch drops, which means players should link their Warframe accounts to the streaming platform before the event. So, you must log in using your linked Twitch account and use it to watch the livestream.
Aside from the gameplay reveal, players can also expect a live developer Q&A at 2 p.m. EST and community art and cosplay show at 4:15 p.m. EST.
