Warframe Launches Caliban Prime in August

by Camila Jan 20,2026
  • Caliban Prime arrives on August 26th.
  • Includes Caliban's signature prime weapons.
  • New TennoGen Factions cosmetic skins will also be released.

Caliban Prime is set to make its grand debut in Warframe later this month, bringing a unique fusion of Orokin elegance and Sentient durability to your arsenal. First revealed during the TennoCon "The Old Peace" demo, this Prime Warframe is the embodiment of adaptability, featuring improved energy and shields plus an additional Attack Polarity to give you a tactical advantage.

Forged from two great empires, Caliban was originally created by the Sentient warlord Erra to hunt the Tenno. Now liberated from his creator's will, he fights on his own terms. Adorned with the iconic gold filigree of the Prime lineage, Caliban Prime is as much a symbol of authority as it is a devastating instrument of war.

In combat, you can unleash whirling vortex dashes, slam the ground with concussive force, and summon Prime variants of his Sentient minions—the Conculyst, Ortholyst, and Summulyst—to shred enemies or reinforce your defenses. His ultimate ability channels raw energy into three convergent streams, culminating in a single, overwhelming blast.

This update also brings Caliban's signature armaments: the Venato Prime melee scythe and the newly unearthed Vadarya Prime sniper rifle from the Orokin archives. Both can be obtained from Void Relics and crafted in your Foundry, or acquired immediately via Prime Access for instant access.

Prime-exclusive cosmetics include the streamlined Neurovyre Prime Syandana, the Tauron Prime Regalia for your Operator and Drifter, and matching glyphs, all bundled with 90-Day Affinity and Resource Boosters. You can also use existing Warframe codes to claim a variety of free items.

Alongside the Prime launch, the TennoGen Factions collection introduces new community-designed cosmetics to the Warframe Market. Look for the Gauss Profitas skin, Xikonos Syandana, Jotunheim whip skin, and Xairaks armor set, all inspired by the game's rich faction lore.
