At the heart of Warframe are the Frames themselves. These artifacts of otherworldly power each have access to a variety of abilities, their own lore, a wardrobe full of assorted cosmetics, and their own playstyle.

Developer Digital Extremes is constantly adding new Warframes to the game, so there’s always something new to chase. For those curious about the history of Warframe, we have a list of all the Warframes in order of release. Each one has a few extra details added, and the list is split between the standard version of the Frames and their fancier, gold-plated Prime versions.

Remember, Warframe launched in beta and is now a very different game than the one Digital Extremes originally designed. The design philosophy has changed quite a bit over the years, and you can actually track that pretty well via the release dates. If you're looking for more of a Tier List, we've also ranked all of the Warframes.

Primes are the shinier, slightly better versions of the standard Warframes. In lore, many of the Primes were original designs and creations of the Orokin Era. Many Warframes were created Primes, while others found their way to that status through incredible feats against the enemies of the Orokin.
