Like most live-service and MMO titles, Warframe hosts a plethora of limited-time events every year. Nightwave is arguably the most important of them all, lasting not just for days or weeks but months. 

Nightwave is the closest thing you can get to something like a battle pass in Warframe, as it adds new challenges and rewards for you to pursue. The one caveat to Nightwaves in Warframe is that its end date is not announced ahead of launch and sometimes concludes on just a two-week notice period. Here's everything we know about the next Nightwave in Warframe.

When Does the Next Nightwave Start in Warframe

Nora’s Mix Vol. 5 has just kicked off on Wednesday, November 29th. We wouldn't expect the next Nightwave to start for at least 3 to 4 months.

What is the Current Nightwave in Warframe

As mentioned above, the current Nightwave in Warframe is Nora's Mix Vol 4. It has no end date as of yet. Nora's Mix Vol 4 adds a bunch of sweet rewards like the Drifter Keeler Suit and the Sentient Blast Battacor Weapon Augment Mod. Whether you're a new player or a veteran, the Nightwave will be your primary source for new mods, resources, cosmetics, and Warframes.

How long does Nightwave Last in Warframe

The Nightwave events in Warframe could last up to 6-9 months if not more. While it primarily functions like the season/season pass of other live-service titles, it's more confusing than those. On the table below you can see how much time has passed between each previous Nightwave in Warframe

Are Nightwave Events Free in Warframe

Yes, the Nightwave events are completely free, and you can claim all the rewards in it without paying a single penny. Unlike season passes in other games, there are no free or premium tiers in Warframe's Nightwave.
