     Warframe 1999 is Metal Gear Solid meets Dark Sector, with a twist

Warframe has been on the go for ten years, and Tennocon 2023 is most certainly a celebration of that legacy. As the RPG game enters a new era with the Whispers in the Dark update, we're also set to go back in time with Warframe 1999, an upcoming story that sees us return to the very beginning of Tenno's ongoing saga. As the curtain falls on what looks like a radical new step for Warframe, I caught up with creative director Rebecca Ford and Soulframe's chief creative officer Steve Sinclair to chat about the update, and where it draws its inspiration from.

     Warframe TennoCon 2023 reveals a packed future for the free game

Even after a decade Warframe still keeps adding in-depth content to the free Steam game, and TennoCon 2023 has been no exception for big reveals. Warframe isn't slowing down, as a big new update, skins, a Halloween event, and more is coming to the game to celebrate the landmark achievement.

     After 10 years, Warframe is finally getting cross-progression

Warframe cross progression is one of the RPG game's most highly requested features, and thankfully Digital Extremes has confirmed that it's finally being implemented soon. You'll be able to dive right back in where you left off regardless of what platform you're playing Warframe on, and, honestly, that's a relief.

     Soulframe release date speculation, trailers, gameplay, and news

When is the Soulframe release date? The upcoming fantasy MMORPG from the creators behind Warframe has been on our minds since it was first announced in 2022. There is still little known about the project, other than that it is a beautiful open-world game set in a natural environment, and revolving around themes of climate change and environmental destruction, so of course we had to find out more.

During our time at Tennocon 2023, we caught a glimpse into the world of Soulframe, which certainly looks and feels very different to its sister, Warframe. Here's everything we know about the MMORPG at the moment, and boy does it look like it'll be a good one.

I like Warframe, Digital Extremes' shockingly enduring free-to-play action RPG, but I do find its sci-fantasy direction a bit much. The mashing together of tinted alloys and astral flame, the blend of over-the-shoulder shooting and swordplay, the environments that occasionally look like GPU boxart on steroids – it's impressive, but a lot to digest.

The Canadian developer's new project Soulframe has the same sense of swagger, with menus consisting of beautiful, quasi-medieval illustrations decorated with scrolls and dancing figures. But it's a quieter thrill, a stately and absorbing world of hazy forests and sun-pierced catacombs, which calls to mind both Dragon's Dogma and the overlooked tiny MMO Book of Travels. After catching a hands-off presentation in advance of this year's Tennocon, I am pretty keen to play.

Greetings, Tenno! This message comes to you from that primeval epoch known as "Last Wednesday", when Digital Extremes treated RPS to a preview screening of the Warframe update announcements planned for this year's Tennocon - a special Tennocon indeed, coinciding as it does with the game's 10th anniversary and the studio's 30th. Alas, "Last Wednesday" was a regular Dark Age, and we dusty ancients were granted only a partial glimpse of the promised new areas, weapons, cosmetics and story content, Digital Extremes having reserved some of the key reveals for a happier period, "Today" - which, according to our most trusted seers, will be an era of understanding and transparency. Fickle are the winds of history! Still, even with the limited insight of our time, we grasped at some sense of the offering's magnitude. Read on, if you dare.

Alien Hominid was a run-and-gun Adobe Flash game originally released in 2002 via influential website Newgrounds. It then got a vastly improved HD release on various consoles between 2003 and 2007.

That HD re-release is now being re-released, and this time it's heading back to PC. It'll have upgraded graphics and weekly and monthly leaderboards when it arrives sometime this year, alongside a sequel.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide features fun, grisly, co-op combat, but at launch was criticised for live service cruft - from an incomplete crafting system to meagre progression rewards. Some criticism also fell upon its four classes, who lacked the 'career' subclasses of its developer's previous game, Vermintide 2.

Darktide's classes will therefore get an overhaul October 4th, when an update will introduce skill trees for each class.
