Digital Extremes today releases a massive content update for their free-to-play sci-fi action MMO Warframe. This 14th update named The Mad Cephalon focuses on simplifying the gaming experience for new users and immersing the player further into the universe. This includes a completely redesigned UI that introduces players to their new player ship, The Liset, a thrilling new quest system starting with Vor’s Prize, the arrival of pet companions as well as a new Warframe, Mirage, the master of illusion.
"We’re putting the ‘B’ back in Beta with this update," joked Steve Sinclair, creative director at Digital Extremes. "Seriously though, we need a new word for Beta. It just doesn’t fully encompass the evolutionary process that games like Warframe go through over their lifetime. Getting endless feedback from our players along with our own ambitions for the game makes us continually work to improve it. Sometimes that means re-working major foundational components to the game like the new-player experience. This entire experience has been a game changer for us - direct player connection - tap into it, nurture it, know what to take from it and a game can become more than you ever imagined it to be."
Among the major highlights of this update are:
- New player experience
A re-imagined UI and menus aboard the player's personal spacecraft, The Liset.
- Pet companions
A new quest unlocks a Genetic Foundry used for breeding biological specimens. Breed a Kubrow by collecting a Kubrow egg and incubating it in the Genetic Foundry. Different Kubrow personality types have different combat and non-combat abilities.
- New Warframe
Mirage, the master of illusion, confounds the opponent in a spectacle of style and power.
- Quests
Explore re-playable quests with unlockable difficulty selection. This new Warframe experience opens with the debut quest, Vor’s Prize.
- New Dark Sectors conflicts
Introducing a new PvP mode to replace the existing Dark Sectors Solar Rails conflict game mode.
- New weapons
Akzani – the weapon of choice of Mirage, these fast-firing dual pistols deliver a deadly performance.
Silva and Aegis – a Sword and Board style weapon created from the concept of the community Melee Design Contest Winner – SilverBones.
- Expanded game modes
The Infested have overtaken Eris. Hive Sabotage, Exterminate, and Survival Game Modes are now available.
