From July 10 to 11, London, Ontario, Canada, hosted 'TennoCon 2026,' Digital Extremes' annual global festival for Warframe fans worldwide. Although the official doors were set to open at 10:00 AM, hundreds of Tenno had already formed an endless line an hour early, showcasing the incredible energy of the event.
This year saw a record-breaking turnout of over 4k fans. The autograph sessions, featuring developers from Warframe and Soulframe alongside popular voice actors, were filled with heartwarming interactions, and as always, the merchandise booths were the clear highlight, with fans leaving with their hands full.
The centerpiece of TennoCon is the reveal of new information for Warframe and Soulframe. Celebrating its 13rd anniversary, Warframe announced the expansion of the existing 'Origin System' with the first-ever reveal of a completely new star chart: 'Tau.' The introduction of a new Warframe with a detective concept—who speaks their own thoughts—and intriguing casino-style minigame elements sent fans into a frenzy.
Furthermore, the major new title 'Soulframe' raised expectations among RPG fans worldwide with a new demo showcasing 4-player squad co-op, as well as a host of unique weapons like the 'Vaygarr'—a system that turns an enemy's corruption against them—and 'Sword-Whips,' which combine the reach of a whip with the power of a greatsword.
The first day of TennoCon featured a cosplay contest and a successful orchestral performance based on the music of Warframe and Soulframe. By incorporating dance performances into the music, the show provided both auditory and visual delight, drawing cheers from all in attendance.
Above all, a major surprise announcement set the hearts of Korean gamers racing: Seoul, South Korea, has been selected as the first stop for the 'Tenno VIP World Tour.' With a live Devstream and offline event scheduled to take place in Seoul this September, it is clear that Digital Extremes holds a special affection for the Korean fandom that has been growing steadily over the years.
