The Power Of A Forgotten Technological Society Returns To Warframe With The Arrival Of Gauss Prime

Today, a new a new Prime joins Warframe’s lineup. Known as the “Saint of Altra”, Gauss Prime boasts the power of forgotten tech and was at the Tower of Altra in a last-ditch effort to defend it from enemy forces. Using this forgotten tech, he was able to cross a minefield and clear out the enemy, earning his title.

Using these same abilities, the Gauss players will be able to build – provided they have the required blueprint, chassis, systems, and neuroptics – will be able to take on swarms of enemies, knocking them down using Mach Rush. He can also convert kinetic energy into an elemental blast or defensive plating. Even his battery core can be manipulated and pushed beyond its limits to increase attack, reload, and movement speeds. Gauss is introduced alongside new tech weapons and special cosmetic items.

Prior to today’s launch, Digital Extremes teased the new Prime Warframe during the DevShorts video yesterday. The shooter's video included the new cinematic trailer and teased the first Devstream of the year, slated to take place on January 26 at 2 p.m. Eastern. At that time, they’ll be revealing the first new Warframe of 2024.
