Discover how to find and scan Fragments in Warframe to unlock hidden lore, audiovisual content, and decorations for your Orbiter. Learn about different Fragment types and their impact on the game's narrative.
Fragments are hidden collectibles scattered throughout the Origin System in Warframe. Scanning or interacting with these fragments unlocks pieces of written and audiovisual lore, providing deeper insight into the game's setting, characters, and factions. These unlocked pieces can also be used as decorations on your Orbiter.
Mechanics:
- Most Fragments can be scanned using the Codex or Synthesis Scanner.
- Scanning unlocks artwork and lore entries in the Codex's 'Universe' tab.
- A hidden point on each image, when hovered over, reveals a short audio transmission with additional lore.
- An audio clue (white noise that intensifies) helps locate this hidden point.
- Some Fragments require direct interaction (default 'X' key) instead of scanning.
