Warframe: Xaku Prime release date, Prime weapons, and more

Assembled in gold.

Xaku Prime, the next Prime to be added to the ever-growing list in Warframe, will be playable much sooner than expected. As we ramp up for 1999, we have one more to get before its launch.

That being said, since we know Xaku Prime is coming out, what is coming alongside them, and what other tidbits of information should you know?

When does Xaku Prime release in Warframe?

Xaku Prime will be released on November 13, 2024. They will be obtainable in-game via the Relic system, by purchasing parts from other players who farmed, or by buying Prime Access.

If you want to obtain Xaku Prime right away but don’t want to buy Prime Access, start stocking up on Platinum now so you can trade it with others who obtain the parts on day one. Just note that prices will be inflated!

Crafting components will not be known until release day, so check back once we know more.

What weapons will come with Xaku Prime?

Xaku Prime’s weapons will be the Quassus Prime and Trumna Prime.

The Quassus Prime may rival the power of the meta Gunsen Prime. Its base version already sports very strong critical stats with decent status. In terms of where it currently is in the meta, it’s already up there alongside other Prime melee weapons. The new stats the Prime variant will have is to be determined.

As for the Trumna Prime, we already know it will be a beast of an explosive LMG. Since it has strong stats overall with innate Heat damage, the Prime is only going to increase all that even further, defining power creep.

If you purchase the Prime Accessories version of the Xaku Prime Access, you’ll get the Artifex Prime Syandana and Necra Prime Operator suit. These can only be obtained by purchasing the pack; they cannot be obtained via farming in-game.

Along with buying this pack, you’ll also get a 90-day affinity and resource booster.
