Soulframe is an upcoming free-to-play action role-playing massive multiplayer online game developed and published by Digital Extremes. It is currently available to play on Microsoft Windows, though Digital Extremes intend to release it on both Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 once it is out of alpha.[1]
Plot
Soulframe is set on Alca, a world that lives and breathes with the spirit of nature, and the ancient magicks of the Fey. Yet Alca is under violent occupation by the Ode, a technologically advanced colonising force from the distant cosmos. Their mercenaries, the Sinecure, have descended from their Skytowers to strip Alca of her flesh and remake the world in the corrupted vision of their home.[2]
Gameplay
The player takes control of the Envoy - a warrior bearing a blue Pact Arm infused with magicks of the ancient Fey, dedicated to protecting Alca and her people from outside threat.
As they explore the land of Midrath they must learn to slay powerful foes, and uncover both the secrets and treasures of this ravaged land.
Status
Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Soulframe is playable via its pre-alpha version, titled Soulframe Preludes. It began as invite-only, but was twice opened to the public during TennoCon - Digital Extremes' annual fan convention[3] - in July 2025 and 2026, granting permanent access to users who signed up by the end of that week.[4][5]
Thereafter, access to Preludes has been granted regularly via both email (to 2,000 randomly selected invitees every Wednesday at 5PM CET) or Twitch Drops available via regular streams (with a guaranteed access code provided to every viewer).[6]
Soulframe's latest major update, Preludes 16: Of Hook & Hound, was released on 18th September, 2026.[7] Its next major update, Preludes 17: Warsongs, is scheduled for late Autumn 2026.[5]
Development
Soulframe is developed by the Canadian studio Digital Extremes, best known for Warframe. It was publicly revealed via a cinematic trailer at TennoCon in July 2022.[8] It then became playable in December 2023 with the release of its first Pre-alpha build.[9]
On November 25, 2025, the Founders program was launched, allowing players to purchase bundles that provide access to Preludes, along with exclusive in-game items.[6][10] The Founders program is expected to continue until later in 2026, and will also be available at the time of the game's release on consoles.[11][12]
