Set in the far reaches of outer space during a new Dark Age, WarFrame introduces the Tenno, a race on the brink of extinction after being enslaved by the Grineer for centuries. Players enter WarFrame on the cusp of the Grineer's victory over the Tenno until they begin to arm themselves with WarFrames - an ancient exo-skeletal technology only they can operate. Hidden within the Orokin Derelicts of a lost civilization, new WarFrames lie dormant and undiscovered. These artifacts are the Tenno's only hope for survival.
WarFrame is a free-to-play fast-action PvE shooter set in an evolving sci-fi world. Some would call it MMO-Lite as squads of four players band together to advance their characters and battle the oppression of the genocidal Grineer. Throughout their combat missions, players will continually increase the power and abilities of their WarFrame and weapons. Players will raid new areas of space searching for exotic and powerful weapons and WarFrame augmentations to customize their arsenal. With WarFrame's Automatic Mission Generator, the game will offer endless replay as levels are procedurally configured for a unique raid -- every time.
Warframe developer/ publisher Digital Extremes is inviting players and fans to mark their calendars for the return of TennoCon - the company’s annual Warframe conference and player celebration event, packed with exclusive news and reveals, contests, in-game activities, giveaways, developer panels, and much more.
The event attended by more than one million online viewers and in-game attendees from around the world will take place digitally on Saturday, July 16 and broadcast from London, Ontario to multiple streaming platforms for free.
“TennoCon is designed to give Warframe players a peek behind our game development curtain, while also taking a moment to celebrate the community of players that make Warframe what it is today,” said Sheldon Carter, COO of Digital Extremes. “We are in the midst of curating a jaw-dropping lineup of announcements and reveals, coupled with interactive in-game experiences that will really make TennoCon bigger and better than ever before.”

TennoCon 2022 will once again play host to Digital Extremes’ Clan Dojo Showcase!
In Warframe, players can band together in large-scale teams called Clans and create customized, decorated Dojos that serve as the Clan “home base.” Digital Extremes hosts Dojo Contests throughout the year, and each month selects a new set of Dojos to appear in Warframe’s Star Chart for all players to visit. TennoCon 2022 will once again showcase past Featured Dojo Contest winners in a series of short tours hosted by Warframe’s community team. All Dojos that have been featured on the Star Chart are eligible to submit designs for consideration. Either the Founding Warlord or the Architect who submitted a contest-winning Dojo will receive an in-game inbox message from the Warframe community team with details their Clan needs to submit for a potential showcase at TennoCon 2022.
Fan art and cosplay submissions, along with TennoCon Dojo showcase submissions, must be submitted to Digital Extremes no later than Thursday, June 16 at 11:59 p.m. ET to qualify for consideration in featuring at TennoCon on July 16.
