Free update, also available for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Mobile, offers all-new additions, including the 64th Warframe, a haunting game mode, fresh cosmetics, improved community features, and more
Digital Extremes’ free sci-fi epic Warframe, a zeitgeist of online gaming, is now available for Nintendo Switch™ 2. It launches alongside the game’s next major update, The Shadowgrapher, free to players on all platforms today, and celebrates 13 years of a growing community for more than 85 million players around the world.
New and veteran players on Nintendo Switch™ 2 can experience Warframe’s rich universe and evolving world with improved FPS, resolution, load times, textures, and shader quality, as well as Joy-Con 2 mouse control support. Play alongside others on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, iOS, Android, and the original Nintendo Switch™ for endless adventures through the Origin System with Cross Platform Save and Cross Platform Play. Those who log in to Warframe on a Nintendo Switch™ 2 console through April 15 will earn the exclusive Ambimanus Pack, which includes a free Warfan weapon among other cosmetics and resource boosters.
“Warframe is officially live on every major gaming platform with full cross-play and save, which feels absolutely wild to say about a game in its 13th year,” said Rebecca Ford, Creative Director. “Creating a seamless gameplay experience for millions of players who can become friends from anywhere in the world on separate mobile devices, consoles, and PC is a development journey that blows my mind. Warframe’s goal is, and always will be, to bring people together and give them a place to call home, where their day might end just a little better than it may have started. When the next console arrives, you can guarantee we will be there to meet our players.”

Follie, the latest Warframe added in the Shadowgrapher update, brings a slew of abilities based on her Rorschach inkblot inspirations. Squad up and survive together in a new co-op game mode inspired by the online multiplayer survival horror genre: Follie’s Hunt. This mode pits four players against Follie, who stalks and attacks bravely curious wanderers around the map, reacting to the allied team’s actions. This update also offers brand new collectable cosmetics, community social features, quality of life improvements, and more to try out.
