Digital Extremes, the developer behind the popular online action game Warframe, is set to release a new update called “The Seven Crimes of Kullervo” on June 21. This highly anticipated update will not only introduce exciting new content but also satisfy the long-standing demand of fans with the addition of the 53rd Warframe, Kullervo, to the game.
The update promises to expand the already vast open world of Warframe’s revolutionary expansion, The Duviri Paradox. In “The Seven Crimes of Kullervo,” players will embark on a story-driven quest that delves into the depths of Duviri to uncover a tragic tale of betrayal and sacrifice. The update presents players with the opportunity to liberate Kullervo, the crimson renegade, who was cast away by the tyrannical Dominus Thrax and imprisoned in the floating dungeons of Duviri.
One of the highlights of this update is the reintroduction of horse races, a feature that many players have eagerly awaited. Additionally, players can expect to encounter new corrupted decrees and an array of deluxe cosmetics and collections, offering ample opportunities for fashion enthusiasts to customize their characters.
To access the new content, players can visit Duviri during Sorrow, Anger, or Fear Spirals, where they will find Kullervo’s Hold as a side objective or part of their story bounties. Alternatively, there will be a special node in the Duviri Star Chart that allows immediate access to Kullervo’s Hold. Confronting Kullervo in a mini-boss fight, players must overcome his powerful abilities to collect dropped resources, which can be exchanged at Acrithis for Kullervo’s blueprints or instantly unlocked using in-game currency.
In addition to the captivating narrative and the introduction of Kullervo, players will encounter new gameplay systems in the update. The Seven Crimes of Kullervo brings new Duviri Undercroft tilesets, providing fresh combat challenges against familiar enemies. Players will also face an unexpected boss visitor in the Exterminate Game Modes. Moreover, the update introduces 15 new powerful decrees, which increase variation in Duviri runs and offer rewards such as rare decrees and Duviri Arcanes. A gardening system will be introduced as well, allowing players to harvest different resources from six plants.
The update wouldn’t be complete without a range of cosmetic enhancements for players to personalize their arsenal. The Gauss Kresnik Collection, featuring the Gauss Kresnik Skin, Bolide Syandana, and Acceltra Deluxe weapon, allows players to move with style and speed. The Orizu Suit Collection offers players sharp and elegant lines inspired by origami, while the Aethon Kaithe Bundle and Steed’s Resolve Pack provide new looks for players’ companions. Additionally, a new wave of TennoGen cosmetics created by the community will be available, including weapon skins, armor designs, and a landing craft skin.
To commemorate Warframe’s 10-year anniversary, Digital Extremes is hosting the Dex Fashion Frame Captura contest. Players can submit their best Captura image, in-game screenshot, or illustration for a chance to win a Prime Access Bundle of their choice, along with 1,000 Platinum.
