Warframe weekly reset (October 2024): Nightwave Acts, Archon Hunt, more

Warframe Weekly reset guideDigital Extremes/Dexerto

As with basically every live service game, Warframe has a weekly reset that brings a fresh set of challenges to conquer and rewards to earn. This is a key part of playing, understanding exactly how the game works, and getting the most out of your valuable time.

Slightly unusually, not all of the weekly resets in Warframe occur simultaneously, with some anomalous examples taking place later in the week. That said, most activities refresh on Monday at 12.00 AM UTC/1.00 AM GMT/8.00 PM ET/5.00 PM PT.
