Digital Extremes today (November 4, 2025) announced that the new side story “The Devil’s Triangle” will be implemented in the online TPS Warframe (available on PC / Switch 2 / PS5 / Xbox Series X|S / Switch / PS4 / Xbox One / iOS) in December.
This side story will be added simultaneously with the upcoming major update “The Old Peace,” scheduled for December. It features three new Protoframes and Gemini skins, an expanded romance & camaraderie system, and a brand-new game mode: “The Descendia.”
“The Descendia” is a mode where players descend into the depths of a twisted tower, fighting through 21 randomly generated floors. Difficulty increases with each floor climbed, rewarding players with various cosmetics and in-game items.

Digital Extremes Dives Into Hell’s Depths With “The Devil’s Triangle”
A Side Story Launching Concurrently with “The Old Peace” Update in December Across All Platforms
During October’s Devstream, Digital Extremes unveiled further details about Warframe’s upcoming expansion chapter, “The Old Peace,” set for release this December. Alongside the year’s largest update, the dark narrative of the new side story “The Devil’s Triangle” was also revealed.
In this full-fledged story experience, players will encounter three brand-new Protoframes and Gemini skins, an expanded romance & camaraderie system, and a terrifying new game mode: “The Descendia.”
The stream also featured the first public reveal of Gyre Prime, the introduction of a major Focus School expansion that transforms gameplay, details on the upcoming Android closed beta test scheduled for November, and a preview of the real-world event TennoCon 2026, set to take place from July 10–11, 2026.
Community Director Megan Everett commented:
“Just like with our original Protoframes, we’re taking bold creative risks with these new characters. Many players expected futuristic designs inspired by the ’80s or early 2000s—so we deliberately went in a Gothic horror direction instead.
I’m genuinely thrilled to see how players react when they first meet these new Protoframes, discover who voices them, or start thinking about customizing their Gemini skins. I deeply appreciate that our community continues to trust and support such unconventional experiments.
…But I do hope players are ready—fully prepared—to make a deal with the Devil as they uncover the truth behind these three.”
