Warframe: 1999 Demo Announced for October 16th

Digital Extremes’ next free expansion for Warframe, Warframe: 1999, is out this Winter. However, fans won’t have to wait long to try it – a demo will go live on October 16th. Players will control Arthur (voiced by Ben Starr) and explore Höllvania on their Atomicycle.

There’s also a playable Extermination Mission with players taking down Scaldra. Further details on its content are unknown, though the developer confirmed that players must complete the quests “Awakening” and “Vor’s Prize” to play the demo. Once complete, you’ll receive the Protokol Longsword Skin for free.

Warframe: 1999 is the next mainline quest for the free-to-play action RPG. It stars the Protoframes, who are trying to find Dr Entrati, engaging in more grounded combat than the base game. While all this is happening, players must also deal with the Technocyte Code (which also has ties to 1999), to destroy their virus, On-Lyne.

Check out extensive gameplay here and stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
