TennoCon 2026: Everything Revealed for Warframe and Soulframe
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
TennoCon 2026 brought massive news for Digital Extremes fans, highlighted by the upcoming Warframe Tau expansion and widespread pre-alpha access for Soulframe featuring star-studded voice talent and new mounts.
Digital Extremes is back with another massive round of updates for its community, broadcasting straight from London, Ontario for TennoCon 2026. For Warframe players, the biggest headline is that the highly anticipated Tau expansion finally launches later this year. Shifting the action entirely to the Tau System rather than the familiar Origin System, the expansion introduces two new locations, including the ring city of Fornax, alongside a fresh enemy faction known as the Fornax Drowners. As always, players tuning into the stream can also jump into a synchronized in-game Relay orbiting Saturn during TennoLive to share the moment with friends and creators alike.
Meanwhile, Soulframe is opening its doors even wider to the community this weekend. Anyone who signs up on the official website before late July 12 can jump right into the Soulframe Preludes pre-alpha test. Players diving in this weekend can test their skills against a brand new boss named the Mendicant Reinbreaker, with the added incentive of eventually befriending the boss's mount. Digital Extremes also used the recent Devstream to outline the upcoming Warsongs Fable, arriving this fall, which introduces the Vadagar Pact as a corrupted player progression path featuring much more violent abilities.
The cast and feature set for Soulframe are expanding in a major way as well. Star power is joining the project through Ben Starr, who steps into the role of antagonist Tempest Bayor, and Jennifer English, who portrays the Empress of Eldveil. Beyond the heavy narrative focus, the pre-alpha is getting quality of life and immersive additions later this year, including animal mounts and a dedicated fishing minigame. For all the details and context, you can read the full breakdown over at Polygon, the original source of this reporting.
