Digital Extremes have been teasing the next Warframe expansion (Warframe: 1999)  for months, and with the conclusion of TennoCon, finally shedding light on it with an in-depth look and target release date, many have been left wondering if the new motorcycle, known as the Atomicycle, would be strictly for the expansion. Well, as it turns out, that isn’t the case, as Digital Extremes have confirmed to us that you can ride this badass motorcycle in any open-world zone.

As confirmed in a group Q&A session during a media-invite preview of TennoCon 2024, Rebecca Ford, the Creative Director of Warframe, confirmed that the Atomicycles would indeed be summonable in all open zones. Those include Plains of Eidolon, Orb Vallis, Cambion Drift, Duviri, and of course, 1999 itself.

As for those wondering if the Atomicycles will be modular, Ford did say they wouldn’t be, as they’re intended to be a means of travel for players. However, you will be able to customize colors and have other cosmetic options for them.

“No, they are a way to get around 1999 and open worlds. They’re not going to be modular. We’re making them more of a cosmetic and characteristic thing rather than, you have an engine from so and so and a chassis from someone else to build your own.

It’s very much pick your skin, pick your cosmetics, and zoom around.”

It’s not surprising that the bike isn’t modular, but it’s still nice knowing that you can customize some things. It’s even better knowing that Digital Extremes isn’t restricting players to only using it during the 1999 campaign, which we’re sure players are going to love seeing in action in places like Plains of Eidolon and Orb Vallis with some 90s’-themed techno music blasting in the background.

Luckily the wait for Warframe 1999 won’t be too long, as the expansion is slated to arrive this winter 2024 on all platforms.
