Digital Extremes has finally set a date for Warframe’s Angels of the Zariman expansion, with the free-to-play sci-fi shooter’s first big update of 2022 coming to all platforms on 27th April.
Angels of the Zariman focuses its multitude of new additions around the lore-critical Zariman Ten Zero, an Orokin ship that vanished during a Void-Jump accident. Front and centre of the update is a new instalment in Warframe’s single-player, story driven Cinematic Quest saga, which this time sets the scene by taking Tenno aboard the Zariman Ten Zero.
Then, once the mission is complete, players will gain access to Chrysalith, a new social hub onboard the Zariman, which introduces a range of new NPC, side missions, and objectives.

There are, for instance, three new procedural mission types – Void Flood, Void Cascade, and Void Armageddon – that can be accessed seamlessly from the new social hub without load screens. Digital Extremes gave Void Flood, an endless mission type with a focus on parkour, an airing in its previous developer livestream, and it’s now shared more on Void Cascade. This one’s described as a survival mission in which players battle against possessed Exolizers and Zariman Wraiths, all while grappling with decaying life support.
