Update 41: The Old Peace

Face the Past. Shape the Future 

We could not be more elated for you to experience all that The Old Peace has to offer! This final update of 2025 sets the stage for our next major chapter with a heart-rending revisit to the past. 

Return to the battlefields of old and relive your experiences on Tau with our latest cinematic Quest: The Old Peace. Albrecht Entrati’s trail leads beyond the Origin System. Only by delving into the past can the path ahead be made clear —  but buried secrets can be deadly. 

Completing the Quest will grant you access to the Dark Refractory – a new Navigation access point to new gamemodes: The Perita Rebellion and Descendia. You can also save the Quest for later if you want to jump right into these game modes with a new experimental feature called Mission Preview! 

Relive repressed memories of the calamitous battles on Tau as the Operator in The Perita Rebellion or descend the Infernums of Roathe’s mind, wracked with memories of a violent past in Descendia.

Roathe, along with the rest of The Devil’s Triad Protoframes Marie Leroux and Lyon Allard, reside in La Cathédrale. A location somewhere in time accessible from a new portal in the Sanctum Anatomica (Deimos). They can all be talked to and romanced (if your heart desires) in the KIM system. Their Gemini Skins and Emotes are also available in the Market!

Bring the essence of the ultimate Tenno power to the battlefield! Focus has received a massive expansion in this update with the introduction of Tauron Strikes – a mighty power harnessed through the Focus Schools. Unlock Strikes by acquiring Tektolyst Artifacts, weapons summoned by the Operator and wielded by your Warframe to devastate the battlefield. 

Operators and Drifters have received a significant remaster! Every feature has had an overhaul to elevate your unique look and bring a more realistic feel to these characters. On login, you will meet your remastered Operator and Drifter with the team’s best efforts to adapt their premaster looks, which you can customize further if desired. 

There’s even more to explore in this update! Meet our 63rd Warframe Uriel, the Heretic of Xata. Shoot and slash with the Vinquibus, a new Bayonet weapon type that is both a Primary and Melee. Expand your Arsenal further with two Orokin-era Grineer weapons and 9 new Arcanes. Shock and awe with Gyre Prime Access. Earn Honoria, profile titles to wear proudly and howl at Lua with the Voruna Medeina Collection. 

And so much more including Operation: Blood of Perita which commences December 16th! We will have a dedicated Operation post once it's live explaining how you can participate. Prepare by completing The Old Peace Quest, which is the prerequisite to be able to trade Operation currency for rewards at Roathe.  

Thank you for an incredible year of Warframe! We hope you love The Old Peace as much as the DE team had making it.

While everyone will find the truth eventually, we ask that our best Tauron Academy students help preserve the mystery for fellow Tenno as they enjoy the update at their own pace. Please read our Spoiler Courtesy PSA to learn more about how you can post with best spoiler-free practices! 

Update 41 is a Mainline Update! 

Meaning that everything the team has been working on since the launch of Update 40: The Vallis Undermind is in this update (with the obvious exception of content that is not ready to be released). It is very likely, as it is with all Mainline updates, that things slip through the cracks so we will be watching for bug reports and feedback in the dedicated The Old Peace subforums to address in follow-up Hotfixes.
