Warframe is getting its first fat frame. While some characters have been described as "thicc" or "phat," Grendel is unabashedly chunky. And while most other Warframes are loosely based off of Japanese samurai or ninjas, Grendel’s look is pretty obviously modeled after Sumo wrestlers. Just look at the way he sto

Grendel will arrive with Warframe ’s upcoming The Old Blood update, which also brings a bunch of new features. The Kuva Lich promises to be a player’s personal nemesis, acquiring whatever abilities were last used against it to turn them back on the Tenno. Melee 3.0 will finally finish with a phase 2 rollout that brings new heavy attacks, mid-air attacks, and lift and juggle attacks, making Warframe patch notes|https://warframebase.com/ ’s melee combat even more satisfy

Developer Digital Extremes isn’t slowing down. They plan to add more space combat later this year with the Railjack expansion, remaster Jupiter’s Gas City map, as well as adding ever more Warframes and weapons for players to gobble up and mas

Additionally, Warframe ’s two most maligned frames are getting reworked. Ember will gain a new "immolation" passive ability that keeps track of how many fires she’s set, while Vauban gets a general buff and a new fourth ability that allows him to call down an orbital str

We cover a lot of games here on TheGamer , but one game that doesn’t get nearly as much coverage as it deserves is Warframe . For years now, Warframe has quietly been gaining momentum, gathering up players, and slowly but surely branching out into every console under the

The celebration starts on March 27th and ends April 10th, so be sure to log in during that time to collect your rewards. And if you’re on the fence on Warframe (or are maybe looking of jumping ship from Anthem), now is the perfect time to st

Microtransactions have been an increasingly touchy subject for gamers in the last few years, especially since Star Wars Battlefront 2 found itself in the spotlight after DICE pushed consumers too far. Game developers have been hard-pressed to find innovative ways to increase revenue earned from titles, but today's story is something else entirely: the developer of Warframe removed a microtransaction because it proved too successful. While some studios purposefully target high-spending gamers (who hold the industry nickname of "whales"), one man's click-happy purchase binge changed the philosophy of the Warframe crew fore

While Warframe still has microtransactions, the game has been widely praised for keeping things in balance: the online environment certainly isn't 'pay to win', and purchases within the game don't come remotely as close to gambling as the infamous slot machine lever incident mentioned above. Now some 5 years after its initial release, Warframe is still getting updates from the developers as the community continues to dedicate plenty of hours into the space-based shoo

When Carter and the rest of the development staff looked at the ~$137 purchase history of a man who really, really wanted to find the perfect fur pattern for his in-game pet, they realized they had essentially created a slot machine that impulsive players would gamble away significant amounts of money on. While many studios would consider this a big win, Digital Extremes made the decision that this kind of activity wasn't healthy for the playerbase in the long run. As Carter explained, it wasn't long before the 'gambling fur randomizer' was removed from the game entir

It's amazing to think that any one game could have a dedicated convention, let alone one that's not from one of the big five publishers, but Warframe has done just that. TennoCon is now in its sophomore year and its 2017 incarnation was by all accounts a smashing success. Hardcore Gamer was able to make the trek out to sunny London, Ontario to take part in all the festivities and given exclusive access to many from the Digital Extremes team. We caught up with the ever popular Rebecca Ford -- Live Operations and Community Producer for Warframe -- to chat with her about what Plains of Eidolon means for Warframe, the future of the series and TennoCon as a whole.

These titles are present across PS4, PS3, and PS Vita platforms, ensuring that consumers are looked after across a wide range of Sony consoles. The offering overall is "meh," but there is value in what's being given away in January 2019. Despite being lackluster, it can be argued that it's still better than December 2018's PlayStation Plus lineup – thanks to Ste

As you can see, Grendel is basically Warframe ’s Kirby. A grosser, more murderous version of Kirby to be sure, but he’s still just Kirby with a scarier face. Which is sort of in-theme for Halloween, now that we think of it. That’s not to say that Grendel will be bad, per se. Kirby is a beloved character, after all. Just that Grendel might seem a little uninspi

Zone of the Enders HD Collection and Amplitude round out what's being offered to PS3 owners through PlayStation Plus in January. The former is a complete remaster of one of the most iconic games in Konami's library, featuring giant mechs and intense battles. Meanwhile, Amplitude (which is developed by Rock Band studio Harmonix) is a single-player rhythm title that puts music at the forefront of the experience. It includes tunes from composers like Darren Korb ( Transistor ), C418 ( Minecraft ), Danny Baranowsky ( Crypt of the Necrodancer ), Insomniac Games, Freezepop, Kickstarter backers, and Harmonix’s in-house compos
