Warframe’s “The 7 Crimes of Kullervo” Update to Add New Warframe, Dungeon, and More in June

Warframe just dropped its latest big update, “The Duviri Paradox,” in April, which means we’d usually be looking forward to an “Echoes” mid-season update sometime around now, but it seems Canadian developer Digital Extremes thinks their next update is significant enough to be deserving of its own name. So, instead of Echoes of Duviri, we’ll be getting “The 7 Crimes of Kullervo” in June.

The 7 Crimes of Kullervo will introduce the titular new Warframe, which is trapped within the Executioner’s Infinite Prison dungeon on Duviri. Here’s a quick description of Kullervo and the new storyline bits included in this update.

“Kullervo - a new Warframe with a violent and vengeful nature  - lies trapped within the Executioner’s infinite prison of Duviri, desperate for a way to escape its grip. Players will overcome new challenges and unique puzzles as they explore its depths, learning more about the crimes of the tragically heroic Kullervo before ultimately battling the imprisoned warrior to release him from captivity.”

You can get a quick peek at Kullervo via the latest Warframe devstream. Of course, there’s also tons of info about other stuff on the way (these devstreams tend to be very longwinded), but I’ve queued the video up to its most interesting point. Check it out for yourself, below.

Here’s a bit more information about what’s included in The 7 Crimes of Kullervo update…

“In addition to adding a new Warframe to instantly unlock or earn through gameplay, The 7 Crimes of Kullervo brings new levels and 15 Decress for players to diversify their Duviri experience, including 5 Corrupted Decrees straight from the mind of Dominus Thrax. Players will also be able to battle an iconic enemy in Duviri Exterminate Missions with a new Gauss Deluxe Collection inside a new Undercroft Tileset. What’s more is exciting new gameplay mechanics and activities are also being introduced with the update, including an updated Gardening Resource Loop and the return of Kaithe racing.”

Warframe can be played for free on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and Switch. The 7 Crimes of Kullervo will launch sometime in June.
