All vikisWolf Pup and Mounts
Soulframe has no rideable mount yet, as of Oct 21, 2026. Preludes 16 (Sep 18, 2026) added a wolf pup companion, chosen at the end of The Shewolf Snared, that you bond with through fetch, walks, fish and combat; Digital Extremes says it will grow into the first mount, promised for 2026, and that wolves will not be the only mounts.
Soulframe has no rideable mount yet, as of Oct 21, 2026: Preludes 16 (Sep 18, 2026) added a wolf pup companion, chosen at the end of the Fable The Shewolf Snared, and Digital Extremes says this pup "eventually becomes the highly anticipated player mount", promised for 2026. Until then you bond with it by "playing fetch, going on walks, feeding on fish, supporting each other in combat, and taking time for snuggly cuddles in between the action" (Digital Extremes, Sep 18, 2026). The Preludes 16 teaser (Sep 4, 2026) shows it: an Envoy beside a small white wolf outside a hut, hugging it, then "Puppy interactions" as the pup bounds through tall grass, and "Fishing" with the pup sitting at the water's edge while the Envoy casts. Digital Extremes adds that "Wolves will not be the only Mounts" (soulframe.com, Jul 11, 2026).
The image above is one of Digital Extremes' official Steam screenshots; it shows where the wolf is headed, not a feature you can use in Preludes as of Oct 21, 2026.

Choosing your wolf pup
The pup comes from The Shewolf Snared, the Fable of the Omen Shewolf Orengall. You find Orengall in chains, free her, then rescue her pups from cages across the woods. In Envoy Hour #6 (Nov 5, 2025) Sarah Asselin's party finds "the cage key to free the first of" Orengall's pups: "Rescuing puppies is one of the best things." Since Preludes 16, finishing the Fable lets you select a wolf pup companion (Digital Extremes, Sep 18, 2026). Orengall herself is on Omen Beasts, and the Fable on Fables and Quests.
The pup lives with you between journeys. Closing the same stream, Asselin says that if you continue on the Fable, "that is how you get your very own puppy who does join you in the" Nightfold, the Envoy's home among the Ancestors (see The Nightfold).
Bonding and temperament
Bonding is what turns the pup into a mount: "On our path to bringing mounts to Soulframe, Envoys must first begin to bond with their cub!" (soulframe.com, Sep 4, 2026). The second half of the teaser shows the pup in the world: beside the Envoy in changing weather, then running at the Envoy's side through a fight in the rain against armored foes in a walled town. The bonding activities named by Digital Extremes are fetch, walks, feeding it fish, fighting together and cuddles.
Your pup develops a temperament from how you play. "By participating in various activities around the Isle, your cub will develop a unique temperament", and Creative Director Geoff Crookes gave two examples: "If you're often treasure hunting, your wolf will begin to develop an aptitude for treasure seeking", and "If your cub is near you in combat, they may develop into a fiercer guard dog!" (soulframe.com, Sep 4, 2026). Digital Extremes points to its patch notes for the rest.
Fishing feeds the pup. Preludes 16's fishing has six lures and six fish, such as the Emerald Prickleback and the Boilhead Wumper; after cleansing a fish of corruption you can release it or keep it "for a wolf companion", or bring it "to the Nightfold to create snacks for your cub" (Digital Extremes, Sep 18, 2026; soulframe.com, Sep 4, 2026). See Fishing.
When can you ride it?
The plan is for the pup to grow until it can carry you. In Devstream 12 (Jan 30, 2026) the team says the mount "is very much going to be about your wolf pup": "we're going to put some time in there for you to bond with your pup. Have it get a little bit bigger so it can carry you", and "that will then lead into it being a mount", with fetch mini-games already in the prototypes.
The target is 2026. In Devstream 15 (May 29, 2026), asked "When are we getting mounts?", the answer is "This year. It's a this year target", and a developer admits: "I was riding around the wolf today and crashed the game." Digital Extremes repeated it after TennoCon ("mounts are coming to Soulframe Preludes this year", Jul 14, 2026) and in September: the cub "becomes an in-game mount later this year" (Digital Extremes, Sep 8, 2026). As of Oct 21, 2026 it has not arrived and has no date; Devstream 18, on Oct 30, 2026, is the next scheduled update on Soulframe's plans.
Riding has been shown. In the TennoCon 2026 Devstream (Jul 11, 2026), work-in-progress footage shows an Envoy riding a large wolf through a pine forest, the wolf loping along the path while the panel watches. The TennoCon recap promises you will "Traverse Midrath by paw with newfound speed thanks to your chosen wolf", but warns: "Don't expect to run with the pack immediately, though. You will have to build trust with them to reach the point of riding" (soulframe.com, Jul 11, 2026). The Warsongs demo also has the Envoy "Ride into the fray on wolf-back"; Warsongs is not out either (see Warsongs).
Other mounts
Wolves come first, but not alone. "Wolves will not be the only Mounts, as you saw in TennoLive Gameplay Demo. There will be more news to share in the coming months" (soulframe.com, Jul 11, 2026). The next Omen Beast, in production since Devstream 12 (Jan 30, 2026), is a ram.
One candidate is a horse. The Mendicant Reinbreaker, an Agari boss added with Preludes 15 and first revealed in Devstream 15, is a rider on a steed; the TennoCon 2026 stream shows its card, horse and armored rider under the words "live now". Beating it frees "his indentured steed for the potential chance to befriend it in the future" (Digital Extremes, Jul 14, 2026). Digital Extremes has not said that the steed will be a mount. The fight is on Bosses and Agari.
Not every animal friend is a mount. Your Spirit Guide, a bird (the Sparrow by default) that leads you around Midrath, has skins such as the Wanderquill, a reward for turning on two-factor sign-in (soulframe.com, Apr 27, 2026). Press at the 2023 TennoCon demo, before Preludes, reported a wolf the Envoy could ride and a bear spirit that acted as a mount (MMORPG.com, Aug 26, 2023; CGMagazine, Aug 28, 2023); neither is in the game as of Oct 21, 2026.
