Alright, so I was at Pax East—well, not actually there, but you get it—and the Warframe folks dropped some wild news. So, they’re bringing in this spider-themed thing called Oraxia. Sounds like it crawled out of some player’s wildest guesses, right? Anyway, it’s part of this Isleweaver update. June-ish, I think? They’re being all secretive with the exact date, as usual.
Picture this: Oraxia’s just chilling on its island in Duviri. Remember Duviri? That big chunk of land they tossed out in 2023, now getting a bit of a refresh with this update. So, apparently, Oraxia’s been trapped or something—it’s all very video-gamey, you know? Players gotta hunt her down for some shiny currency, and then bam! You unlock her as the 61st warframe with all these nifty weapons. Classic.
Now, this spider warframe thing isn’t exactly news if you’re a devstream regular. It’s been this in-joke among fans for a while; people randomly throwing the idea at Digital Extremes during streams. They’ve done all sorts of spooky warframes. Voruna was like a werewolf, and everyone’s all over it. There’s the ghostly Sevagoth and mummy-like Inaros. But, let’s be real, Limbo is the real nightmare fuel. Seriously, ask any seasoned player.
But Isleweaver isn’t just about adding a new frame. Major Neci Rusalka is causing chaos in Duviri—just shows up and takes over. Players get to use their own gear to deal with her, which is a big deal. Duviri’s always been rogue-like, forcing you to play by its rules, so this switch-up is kinda huge.
And Valkyr, oh man, she’s getting some love too. They’re tweaking her whole vibe with a rage-based system. Should be interesting. People have mixed feelings about Duviri. Some folks think it’s awesome, especially for newbies who want to try new gear without grinding old stuff. But the catch? It snatches away your trusty arsenal. Now, bringing your own gear to Isleweaver might just smooth those ruffled feathers.
Guess we’ll all be biting nails till June. What do you think? Ready for what’s coming? I mean, who really knows? Let’s hear it!
