Caliban Prime is about to crash land into Warframe on August 26, bringing his signature golden trim, Prime weapons, and a new TennoGen collection. Players got a first look at the latest Prime Warframe during TennoCon’s “The Old Peace” demo, but now everyone will get a chance to embody Caliban, a master of adaptability with increased stats.

This ancient survivor of the Old War was built initially by the Sentient warlord, Erra, to hunt down the Tenno. Now, free from his creator’s clutches, Caliban Prime joins the ranks of other Warframes to restore his own honor.

Who is Caliban Prime?

Caliban, the heir of two kingdoms, an ancient survivor of The Old War, who was uncovered from the wreckage. Originally created to specifically hunt down the Tenno by the Sentient warlord, Erra, he is now free of his creator’s clutches, joining an arsenal of Warframes to restore his honor.

What to expect from Caliban Prime?

Caliban Prime Warframe Update

  • Playstyle: Dash forward as a spinning vortex to cut down enemies, slam the ground with a wrathful strike, summon Prime versions of his Sentient constructs, Conculyst, Ortholyst, and Summulyst, to further damage foes or buff defenses, as well as catch enemies in three streams of devastating raw energy that converge into one giant blast.
  • Weaponry: Players can equip Caliban’s signature melee scythe, Venato Prime, and a new sniper rifle discovered in the Orokin archives, Vadarya Prime.
  • Cosmetics: Elevate futuristic fashion with exclusive cosmetics, including the Neurovyre Prime Syandana backpiece, the Tauron Prime Regalia outfit for the Operator and Drifter, exclusive Caliban Prime Glyphs, as well as 90-Day Affinity and Resource Boosters.
How do we unlock the latest Prime Warframe?

Players can farm for Caliban Prime for free by collecting Blueprints from Void Relics and crafting the components. For those who want to jump right into the action, various packs are available on the official Warframe website.

Unlock TennoGen Factions Collection
