This weekend is finally Warframe’s flagship fan event, TennoCon, taking place over three days in London, Ontario, the city from which its development studio Digital Extreme hails. Those attending in-person get three days of TennoCon programming, including actor meet-and-greets and more “behind the scenes” panels.
Thankfully, Digital Extremes makes sure the important details aren’t getting lost by this in-person exclusivity. The bulk of the important TennoCon announcements will air on the main Twitch stream this Saturday, especially during the Tennolive presentation later in the day, so you can tune in to catch those.
TennoCon 2024 Twitch Stream Schedule & Item Drops
Running only on Saturday, July 20, the streams will be on the official “Warframe” Twitch page, and those needing or wanting closed captioning can utilize the first-ever “WarframeTranscription” stream.

If you’re looking to earn some of the rare items previously announced as Twitch drops, you’ll want to tune in for more than a bit. You’ll earn the AX-52 Rifle by watching anytime from 11:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., and then the Saryn Prime will drop during the TennoLive stream beyond 4:30 p.m. until the end of the stream.
There’s also swag on sale on the site, including real-life merch and “Digital Packs” with exclusive skins and rewards.
Warframe 1999 In-Game Preview Relay
If you want a deeper look as to what’s to come in the 1999 expansion beyond what the Tennolive presentation promises, there’ll be a preview in-game. This year’s in-game relay, "Höllvanian Central Mall," features a “seemingly abandoned mall,” promising a chance to “soak in the sights and sounds of Warframe 1999.” In short, it’s a live preview of a locale of some kind.
The relay goes live on July 20 at 4:30 p.m. EDT (1:30 p.m. PDT), and will be live until July 29th if you can’t catch it during TennoCon itself.
