Upcoming fantasy action RPG Soulframe was slated to release later this year, but developer Digital Extremes is no longer certain whether Warframe's spell-slinging cousin will launch in 2025. Counterintuitively, though, you can play the game right now, with Digital Extremes opening up access to the pre-alpha (loftily dubbed "Preludes") until the end of this weekend.
The situation was explained to Eurogamer by Soulframe's creative director, Geoff Crookes, and community manager Sarah Asselin. When asked if Soulframe was still on track for a 2025 launch, Crookes' response was uncertain. "I'm going to be flakey here and say we have ambitions," he explained. "We're going to judge where we are in the fall. We have ambitions to release it as soon as we can!"
