Warframe Creators' New Fantasy Game Lets You Create a Mother to Determine Appearance of Your Character
Extensive gameplay from Soulframe hit the Internet. It shows that at the beginning of the game, we will have to create a mother for our character.
Soulframe is an upcoming free-to-play fantasy action game from the developers of Warframe. Although we still don't know exactly when the game will see the light of day, more and more is known about the gameplay itself. During the TennoCon 2024 conference, a 17-minute material was presented showcasing important mechanics. Definitely the most interesting option is the ability to configure the mother of our character.
Before we create our character, we will create our mother
Everything is accompanied by a beautiful film interlude depicting a battle, which ends with a shot of a woman holding a baby in her arms. Of course, a video clip isn't everything. We will be able to customize the appearance of our parent. Changing her characteristics will prompt the narrator to respond with a variety of epithets and metaphors. Unfortunately, we don't see the entire process. However, it appears that it will either be reflected in the available options during character creation, or it will be generated automatically based on the mother's appearance (or both parents - this would make a lot of sense, but it is still unknown if we will also create the protagonist's father).

New Ancestor and the cursed hand
The published gameplay also presents many interesting details. So let's take a look at the most important ones.
- The character we control will have a cursed hand, which "works" similarly to character classes. In the game, we will be able to change them to gain different abilities.
- Ancestors, i.e. spirits who will help us, play an important role in the game, especially when it comes to equipment. During the show, a new ancestor was presented, or rather an ancestress - a rat witch named Vermina. In the game, she will deal with alchemy.
- The gameplay presents the initial stage of the game, so we get insight into the first tasks we will have to do. We can also see one of the bosses - Nimrod.
Big update for Warframe
It's also worth paying attention to the presentation of a huge update to Warframe called 1999, which will be released this winter. Below you can watch the trailer of the update.
