Warframe is now open for Android pre-registration, marking a significant milestone for the beloved third-person hack 'n slash shooter from developer Digital Extremes. This move introduces the game to a fresh audience on mobile platforms, and it's just the tip of the iceberg with a plethora of exciting updates and announcements.
During the latest devstream, Digital Extremes unveiled a host of news, including the upcoming anime short for Warframe: 1999, produced in collaboration with studio The Line. This is part of an ongoing Alternate Reality Game (ARG) featuring the fictional boy band On-Lyne, which has been meticulously cataloged by the developers themselves.
Warframe: 1999 is set to introduce a range of new features and additions, such as the innovative Faceoff PvPvE multiplayer mode. Fans will also be thrilled to hear about the return of Neil Newborn, known for his role in Baldur's Gate 3, to the voice cast.
