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

The anticipation surrounding Warframe's 1999 expansion has been palpable, and the upcoming Techrot Encore update is set to amplify that excitement further. Mark your calendars for March 19th, as this update introduces a thrilling array of new content to the game.

Techrot Encore brings four new Protoframes into the fray: Flare, Minerva, Kaya, and Velimir II, each adding unique flair to your arsenal. But that's not all—the 60th Warframe, Temple, makes a grand entrance with Techrot Subwoofer minions and a sapient guitar named Lizzie, promising to shake up the battlefield in style.

For those who crave a challenge, Techrot Encore offers two new endgame stages. In Stage Defense, players will protect Scaldra during a memorial performance, commemorating fallen comrades in the wake of Scaldra's city conquest. Meanwhile, Temporal Archimedea challenges you to team up with Minerva and Velimir II for three consecutive missions, with the Peely Pix system keeping things fresh by altering your modifiers each round.

In a touching tribute, Digital Extremes honors a Make-A-Wish commitment with the addition of the Atomicycle racing mini-game, Ollie's Crash Course, at the Höllvania Mall Hub arcade. This heartwarming feature adds a new layer of fun to the Warframe experience.

With the buildup to Tennocon 2025 and the relaunch of the upgraded Warframe Companion App's open beta, March is shaping up to be an exhilarating month for Warframe enthusiasts. Whether you're diving into the new content or preparing for future events, there's no shortage of reasons to be excited about what's coming next in Warframe.
