The new studio founded by ex-BioWare devs Humanoid Origin is looking to fill multiple roles.
What came to PC last month is now available on consoles. Warframes latest patch, titled Plains of Eidolon, which includes an open-space landscape (called the Plains of Eidolon), new resources to collect and a day-night cycle.
"Welcome to the Plains of Eidolon. Sentients once fought on this battleground in an attempt to destroy a massive Orokin Tower that the Ostrons now call home. The Sentients' defeat is forever immortalized in the ancient graveyard that litters the Landscape.
Time in the Plains cycles the same for all Tenno. For every 100 minutes of beautiful sunshine, there are 50 minutes of haunted night"
You can download the free-to-play game on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
Available Now! For the first time in Warframe -- explore, fight, and fly through the open Landscape of Planet Earth. Visit the bustling town of Cetus to craft weapons, shop for fishing equipment, take on quests and learn the ways of the Ostrons.

Digital Extremes, the London based developer of Warframe, will be moving east next month, having announced they are opening up a second studio here in Toronto. The studio will be focused around the development side of their business.
"Toronto has become a hub of impressive game development over the past 7-8 years. Being only two hours down the road from our headquarters in London, expanding to Toronto is a logical choice to continue growth plans for Digital Extremes and keep up with the pace of our growing stable of games,” said Meredith Braun, Digital Extremes VP of publishing."
