Warframe’s New Major Update Adds Yareli Prime Character

YARELI PRIME ACCESS

Yareli Prime 

The Waverider arises, reborn from the ocean foam. In her original Orokin-era splendour she embodies the undying vigor of youth.

Merulina Prime

Yareli Prime’s living board is the epitome of elegance and style.

Daikyu Prime

Long believed lost, the mighty Daikyu Prime was the pride of many a Tenno dojo. The strength demanded to draw it is repaid in added range and power.

Kompressa Prime

Glinting like a golden dawn, Yareli Prime’s signature pistol engulfs foes in a cascade of virulent, explosive, water globules. None can escape the sea.

Yareli Prime Accessories

Merulina Prime Syandana

Yareli Prime’s faithful water-glider is happy to adorn her body as an additional ornament.

Thalassa Prime Ephemera

Creatures of the deep circle and play in your wake. Yareli Prime’s signature ephemera.

Merulina Prime Domestik Drone

Merulina’s tiny spawn are used to foraging on the sea bed, and adapt easily to nibbling up dirt from an Orbiter floor.

Items Moved To Prime Vault:

Now that Yareli Prime Access is available, the following items have been added to the Prime Vault for a future Prime Resurgence rotation. If you have Relics that contain these items they will remain in your Inventory.

  • Fulmin Prime
  • Gunsen Prime

Riven Disposition Changes:

As with each round of Prime Access come updated Riven Disposition numbers – check the full details here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1454769-may-2025-riven-dispositions/
