Digital Extremes has released a new update for the Soulframe closed alpha, titled “Preludes 14: The Duelo.” The previously announced update adds the Duelo Pact and a new Fable.
The highlights of the new update are as follows:
- “The Wreck Of Mestra Carmo” Fable
- A new narrative Ancestor quest inviting brave souls to seek out a haunted shipwreck and challenge a long-lost expert fencer
- The new Duelo Pact
- Master powers only pirates are privy to, and weave together materials to craft the Mestra armour set.
- Rapier Weapon
- Comes in two forms: the elegant Navalha or the intrepid Espadarte. Stashes can be found in the new Mirifuir Castle Siege Encounter or the Fallen Ode Skytower environment, which is crawling with a new Agari sub-boss known as the Rovgot Wyrm.
- Additional new weapons
- The corrupted one-handed sword, Cenotaph, the haunted sword and shield, Lyke-Wake, and the eerie Ode’n staff, Silistavf.
- New quality-of-life features
- Five additional Votive side quests at World Tree job boards
- A reworked journal UI and codex menu
- A revamped combat loop for Runes’ power activation – now tied to fully-charged heavy attacks.
The official Soulframe website describes the game:
Washed ashore on the northern isle of Midrath, a new adventure begins.
Omen beasts in Ode’n chain bellow in mourning. The voicing trees sag ‘long tortured streams. The worldflesh of Alca splits with rage.
Who will find the Silvern Seas and awaken our Ancestors? Who will learn the melodies of soul unbinding, and break the gaunting spellsong? Who will hold in their heart the wanderers, the wild, the world? You will, Envoy.
It is unknown whether or not Soulframe will release in 2026 or beyond. Additionally, while Digital Extremes’ have not yet confirmed Soulframe’s consoles, it will likely be available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC, similarly to Warframe.
