Did I get sufficient buzz phrases in that headline?
One large concern with writing for Destructoid whereas additionally working a full-time job is that it’s very troublesome to maintain up with these games-as-a-service titles I like whereas additionally doing all of the evaluations, previews, and normal articles which can be of curiosity to me. It’s too simple for these video games to fall to the wayside, which is strictly what occurred to Warframe a few yr in the past. Regardless of the various hours I put into it on Change, I simply couldn’t catch up and sustain with every little thing Digital Extremes was placing out. Hopefully, I’ll be higher at managing my time when Soulframe launches.
Simply the largest announcement at Saturday’s TennoCon, Digital Extremes whipped an impressively stunning and cryptic trailer for its Soulframe reveal. Introduced as a free-to-play motion hybrid-MMORPG that takes place in a fantasy setting, this would be the subsequent unique recreation from Digital Extremes and arguably its greatest enterprise since starting work on Warframe. Along with the trailer linked above (which is unfortunately age-restricted), Digital Extremes additionally launched the recreation’s web site with just a few items of idea artwork.
“With Soulframe’s worldbuilding and thematic parts, we’re actually wanting to return to our childhood favorites and pull inspiration from the flowery fantasy worlds that we fell in love with rising up,” Soulframe Artistic Director Geoff Crookes stated in a press launch. “Our crew is de facto on this thought of nature and humanity colliding and we’ll be exploring a whole lot of these themes via our personal lens whereas taking part in with concepts of restoration and exploration.”
Whereas some large names inside Digital Extremes are transferring over to the Soulframe crew, the developer was fast to verify that it’ll hold supporting, increasing, and updating its flagship title Warframe.
Rather more for Warframe
Talking of Warframe, Digital Extremes shared some new particulars on the extremely anticipated Duviri Paradox enlargement. Set the discharge on all platforms this winter, The Duviri Paradox begins a brand new chapter of the Warframe storyline with an expansive world and a looping day cycle.
Past The Duviri Paradox, Digital Extremes additionally took time at TennoCon 2022 to disclose Styanax because the fiftieth Warframe, announce the Veilbreaker replace will probably be coming quickly to all platforms, and make sure that Rebecca Ford, the Dwell Operations & Group Director at Digital Extremes, has taken over as Artistic Director for Warframe as Steve Sinclair strikes over to Soulframe.
Past the Soulframe reveal, my favourite announcement yesterday was the affirmation that group testing will begin quickly for cross-play. Again when it first launched, I examined the waters of the PlayStation 5 model of Warframe and was utterly blown away by how beautiful the sport regarded. After placing just a few hours into that, it was robust to return to the just-okay-looking Change model. The one downside is I put a lot time into the sport on Change, I can’t carry myself to begin from scratch on PS5. That’s a giant purpose why I dropped off it in favor of its rivals. So, the earlier cross-play and cross-progression get right here for Warframe, the higher.
