Recently at TennoCon, for instance, the developer unveiled Soulframe, a name you might be familiar with from the game’s recent trademark filings. Digital Extremes describes Soulframe as a “free-to-play action hybrid-MMORPG” and has confirmed that the game is in early development. Soulframe was announced with a CG cinematic trailer offering a glimpse of its unique fantasy world and what could possibly be an early representation of the game’s time manipulation-focused combat mechanics. Check it out below.

“With Soulframe’s worldbuilding and thematic elements, we are really looking to go back to our childhood favorites and pull inspiration from the elaborate fantasy worlds that we fell in love with growing up,” said Soulframe creative director Geoff Crookes. “Our team is really interested in this idea of nature and humanity colliding and we’ll be exploring a lot of those themes through our own lens while playing with ideas of restoration and exploration.”

Digital Extremes says the path to the launch of Soulframe will be a “familiar one” and one that emphasizes engagement and interaction with the community, similar to how the developer has handled Warframe over the years.

When exactly the game is expected to launch, however, or what platforms it will release for- those are questions that remain to be answered.

Digital Extremes has also announced a third person character-focused fantasy action game in partnership with Airship Syndicate, and it’ll be another free-to-play project. Read more on that through here.

Echoes of the Zariman is an update to the recently-released Angels of the Zariman expansion. The update will be adding new cosmetics and weapons, and will be bringing some improvements to the gameplay that address feedback from players.

Along with details about the update, Devstream 162 will also be giving an update on the upcoming TennoCon event celebrating Warframe, which will take place digitally on July 16.

Digital Extremes had registered a trademark for “Soulframe” in Europe earlier this month. While the trademark’s name has a resemblance with Warframe, it is currently yet to be known whether it will be a spinoff, expansion, or a full-fledged sequel.

Earlier this year, Warframe celebrated its 9th anniversary with free in-game rewards. The rewards, available to everyone who played during the celebration period, included skins, weapon slots, and a digital bobblehead.
