Warframe crossplay will soon enter community testing, developer Digital Extremes confirmed in a new update.
The studio is currently working to expand its popular shooter in a number of ways, uniting all available platforms while preparing a mobile version.
This news comes via TennoCon 2022 where Digital Extremes made a number of major announcements, including a new MMO titled Soulframe.
Warframe Crossplay Update
Warframe crossplay has been a highly requested feature from the player community for a long time now. As we’ve seen with many multiplayer games, this isn’t as easy as flipping a switch. The upcoming update will not only allow players on different systems to squad up and play together, it will also allow for shared progress and inventories.
Here’s an official status update, direct from TennoCon:
Warframe is continuing its path towards Cross Play, Cross Save, and mobile development as the team has spent the last year exploring Cross Play capabilities and performing internal testing.
With these steps forward comes our expansion into Community Testing and we are excited to announce that these tests will be happening this year.
In preparation for Cross Play and mobile releases, we will be synchronizing various systems starting with the Void Trader, Baro Ki’teer. Inventories will become aligned for all platforms when Baro makes his scheduled visit starting July 29, 2022.
We are still deeply committed to the implementation of Cross Play and Cross Save and we are striving to let everyone across every platform play seamlessly from wherever and whenever they choose.
Details on the game’s 50th Warframe were also teased with Digital Extremes teaming up with fellow game developer, Airship Syndicate.
It’s been confirmed that Joe Madureira will lend his talents to the design of this new wolf-inspired playable character. Madureira’s comic book style is immediately recognisable, the writer/artist having worked on Uncanny X-Men as well as the Darksiders game series and Battle Chasers.
