What is the exact release time for Jade Shadows?

Jade Shadows will be released on June 18, 2024, at around 11 am CT. Warframe updates will usually be released within a couple of hours on either side of this time. It is hard to know for sure, as the game is somewhat famous with players for not really having had a set release time over the years. In fact, live streams in the run-up to the new build release were a tradition with Steve Sinclair, the former game director, as he himself wouldn’t be entirely sure when the build would finish compiling.

Jade Shadows will bring us a new story quest about the Stalker, a character that has tormented Warframe players for years yet remains shrouded in mystery. A new Warframe named Jade will also be released, designed to counter Stalker, even down to the themes of her weapons.

The Belly of the Beast Clan event will give us a new way to quickly farm some Arcanes. With Jade’s arrival, something wicked has been stirred up, and we will need to deal with it. A new game mode, called Ascension, is also being added. This will put us in a situation where we have little choice but to help Stalker. With his stronghold under attack from massed Corpus forces, we cannot allow them to achieve their aims. We’ll need to initiate an emergency evacuation before embarking on a grueling ascent through enemy-infested elevator shafts to the Extraction waiting for you above.

We also have some new cosmetics with the Yareli Pandea skin and the Terror Landing Craft skin. Finally, we might need to rework some of our builds, as there will be a combined enemy scaling and status rework that might lead to some very interesting build combinations.
