The Duviri Paradox casts you as the Drifter, who very much resembles and sounds like that Pedro lad off The Mandalorian. Your mission – which you don’t seem to have any choice about accepting – is to escape the realm of Dominus Thrax. He really likes trying to kill you, then revives you when you do snuff it. Digital Extremes say that the time-curdling nature of the expansion’s paradox quests means you can play it out of order, with aspects from other expansions that came before it popping up out of temporal sync.

Though Warframe players have been waiting for and expecting The Duviri Paradox sinceTennoCon 2019, there’s still another expansion coming before it finally arrives.Veilbreakerwas a surprise announcement at today’s TennoCon, and will bring back some of the familiar characters and baddies from last year’s The New War expansion.
