Warframe’s Major New Expansion Now Available

Hmm… Alright, let’s see how we can make this interesting. Ever heard of Warframe? Probably, right? Well, their new expansion, Isleweaver, just rolled out on PC and consoles. It’s part of Update 39. Now, before I forget where I was going with this — because, let’s face it, that happens — this thing takes you back to Duviri. And it’s got all kinds of goodies: new story stuff, gameplay tweaks, and oh, let me not forget, a special Warframe Operation.

Digital Extremes — sounds fancy, huh? They’ve been at this for 12 years now. Imagine that! They’ve dropped 20 expansions already. Back in March, we got that Techrot Encore thing. It feels like they’re trying to one-up themselves with Isleweaver, dropping on June 25. Anyway, who was counting?

So, yeah, players get whisked back to those floating isles, Duviri. You’ve got this thing called Operation: Eight Claw. It’s like… how to put it—limited-time craziness. You’re basically up against Major Neci Rusalka and her crew. And that ends with a boss named Oraxia. Spidery, rogue-ish, and totally not your average Warframe. Trust me, it sounds cooler than I can describe.

And hey, there are 61 of those Warframe characters now. Oraxia makes up that number, if you’re keeping tabs. She’s… what’s the word… predatory? Loves poison too. Her weapons aren’t too shabby: Spinnerex whip, Scyotid, and Thalys, which honestly sounds like a band name. And there’s this Murmur enemy, The Unseeing Herald. You’d have to meet it to believe it, really. Drop some Temporal Dust when you beat them, which seems important for crafting stuff.

Isleweaver isn’t just about fighting, if you’re into that. They want new players to actually understand what’s happening. Junction solo missions got a facelift. Means you can earn rewards step-by-step. More clarity, too—like telling you what you’re supposed to do before you bumble through it all. They started rolling these changes out with Yareli Prime in late May, so not totally new.

Speaking of, other stuff: Valkyr’s abilities got a makeover. And if you’re into cosmetics—why wouldn’t you be—they’ve got new skins and bundles. Get this: Warframe’s got new player experience improvements. Better UI and whatnot. The goodies keep rolling, even after July 16, which is weirdly nice for all you completionists.

Now, listen, I’m rambling—where was I? Oh, right, updates. In Update 39, you got Isleweaver with Scholar’s Landing to play on. Fight Murmur forces, meet Oraxia, and all that jazz. Plus special event objectives and cool new gear. Valkyr’s changes, fresh Augments, revamped player experiences—all rolled into one chaotic bundle of fun.

There you go. A big muddy mess of an update that somehow sticks together in a peculiar way. Makes you want to dive in, doesn’t it? Or maybe just take a nap—depends on the day.
