Koumei & the Five Fates update hits Warframe this fall

As Gamescom came to an end, Digital Extremes was just getting started with a Tenno VIP event featuring a reveal no one saw coming. Hot on the heels of The Lotus Eaters Prologue, Warframe players can now look forward to the Koumei & the Five Fates update this fall.

The Koumei & the Five Fates update was previously titled “Unannounced Fall 2024 Warframe update” at TennoCon 2024, but I like this name and the actual context of what’s in the update way better. I didn’t attend Gamescom 2024, so I didn’t see what those at the Tenno VIP event were shown, but Digital Extremes says in a blog post that fans attending got a sneaky early look at the update.

A look at a new Warframe, Nora’s Mix Vol. 7, and a Volt skin

Warframe‘s Koumei & the Five Fates update will be released in fall 2024, and it brings a slew of new content, some of which all players can enjoy regardless of where they are in their journey with the game. I don’t have a confirmed release date for the update, but I do know that Nora’s Mix Vol. 7 is launching on September 3, 2024. This will allow players to unlock a tonne of new gear by completing the challenges within, all of which are themed around a familiar brooding protector from the Jade Shadows update.

The Koumei & the Five Fates update for Warframe, which comes after the latest Nora’s Mix, will add a new Deluxe Skin for Volt mains. Based on this and the update’s name, I can certainly start to see a theme emerging for the update, and it looks really exciting. Of course, that’s excitement from the Fashionframe point of view since we don’t know what the update will add in terms of gameplay just yet.

Finally, as you can see higher in this article, Tenno VIP attendees also got a better look at Cyte-09, a new Warframe coming to the game with the Warframe: 1999 update. This is Warframe‘s modern-day version of the Protoframe who we’ll interact with this winter.

Finally, the developer also provided its first update on The Line‘s Warframe: 1999 anime. It’s a brief peek behind the curtain and details Lettie, the reluctant healer of the group you’ll be interacting with when playing through the update’s campaign. This is the first official Warframe anime, expanding the franchise’s reach into a whole new medium. The two images we’ve seen so far look great, and I’m eager to see what The Line puts together.
