Warframe Is Out Now On iOS Alongside Some Progression Changes

Warframe has been on a roll lately with a sizeable content update in the form of Update 35: Whisper in the Walls as well as the addition of Gauss Prime (with an excellent trailer to boot), but the live-action shooter’s success continues with the game’s mobile version finally being available for people on iOS. Of course, this leaves Android users in a tough spot as this release only covers Apple’s platform, but developer Digital Extremes has stated that more information regarding the Android version will come in the future, and has encouraged those interested to stay tuned and sign up at https://www.warframe.com/android.

There have been some concerns from players regarding how the session hosting/host migration will be affected by the inclusion of mobile platforms, but Digital Extremes has already addressed this, stating that session hosting will prioritise players on Xbox, PlayStation and PC, followed by Nintendo Switch and then by mobile users. This is not to say that you will never find a session hosted from a mobile device, but rather Digital Extremes has put measures in place to mitigate the chance of that happening as much as possible.

Good Warframe news does not only exist for mobile players, however, as today also brought with it some quality-of-life changes to the game. Not every QoL change they have mentioned before was brought in today, with the others being tabled for release with Update 36: Dante Unbound. The changes brought into the game today are as follows:

Saya’s Vigil Quest Changes: 

  • “Locate the Shatter-Lock pieces” stage:
    • The Grineer Armored Vault in the Plains of Eidolon that contains one of the Glass Shards that needs to be scanned will now be opened by default.
      • Before, you would have to interact with the unlock terminal for the doors to open. This made finding the Glass Shard difficult, as players would, understandably, overlook the locked Vault. 
    • Moved the Glass Shard in the Grineer Armored Vault from a hard to see corner to the floor. 
    • Added a highlight to the Glass Shard to make them more visible. 
  • “Board Hek’s Galleon” stage:
    • Reduced the level of enemies from 5-8 to 4-5. 
    • Reduced the level of the Nox that players have to defeat to progress from 12 to 7. 

The Sacrifice Quest Changes: 

  • Added 60x Kuva to the “Explore Lua” mission rewards.
    • Since 60x Kuva is required to craft Excalibur Umbra to proceed in the Quest, we want to prevent players from having to interrupt their Quest flow in order to obtain some. 

Vox Solaris Quest Changes: 

  • “Talk to Thursby in Fortuna” stage: Lowered the Health of the Corpus Spy Drone (from 8,000 to 2,500) you have to shoot down and hack to progress.

Solaris United Sacrifice Changes: 

  • Rank 1 “Outworlder”
    • Training Deb Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 13)
  • Rank 2 “Rapscallion”
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 15) 
    • Training Debt Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 12) 
  • Rank 3 “Doer”
    • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 4 (was 13) 
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 15) 
    • Training Debt Bonds – Reduced to 2 (was 10) 
  • Rank 4 “Cove”
    • Advances Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 13) 
    • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 4 (was 10) 
    • Shelter Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 12) 
  • Rank 5 “Old Mate”
    • Familial Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 10)
      • Advances Debt Bonds – Reduced to 5 (was 12) 
      • Medical Debt Bonds – Reduced to 3 (was 12) 

Vox Solaris Sacrifice Changes: 

  • Rank 1 “Operative” – No changes
  • Rank 2 “Agent”
    • Gyromag Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 8) 
    • Vega Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 3 “Hand”
    • Atmo Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
    • Calda Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 4 “Instrument”
    • Repeller Systems – Reduced to 1 (was 3) 
    • Sola Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 5) 
  • Rank 5 “Shadow”
    • Repeller Systems – Removed (was 3) 
    • Crisma Toroid – Reduced to 1 (was 3) 

Little Duck’s Offerings Rank Changes: 

  • Changed the Vox Solaris Rank requirement for purchasing Gyromag Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 1 and changed Atmos Systems from Rank 3 to Rank 2.
    • Since Rank 2 requires a Gyromag System Sacrifice, and Rank 3 requires an Atmo Systems Sacrifice, we adjusted their Rank requirements so that players could acquire them with Standing to rank up. This logic was already applied to the Repeller Systems, which you can purchase at Rank 3 and need for the Rank 4 & 5 Sacrifices, so we did the same with these. 

“Dreamer’s Bond” Aura Mod
Upon completing the Venus Junction, players will now be rewarded with a new Aura Mod, and players who have already completed this junction will find this aura mod waiting for them in their inbox:

  • Dreamer’s Bond
    Squad receives +0.3 Energy Regen/s and +1.5 Health Regen/s.

Warframe is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S/ Nintendo Switch, iOS, and PC.
