Warframe is an update behemoth at this point. There’ve been more updates and expansions than most paid games get in their lifetimes and Warframe is both free and not showing any sign at all of slowing down any time soon. This new update may just be one of the most interesting yet.
Plains Of Eidolon, as the update is titled, will for the first time, allow players to explore what Digital Extremes are calling an Open Zone. It’s basically an open world area populated with enemies and things to do, imagine something like Dragon Age Inquisition or Mass Effect Andromeda‘s open world areas. Straight from the press release we’ve got a bit of information about what you can expect:
Stay tuned for more info on Plains Of Eidolon, which is due to release at some point this year.

For the first time in Warframe history, Tenno will have the freedom to explore, fight, journey and fly through the open Landscapes – Warframe’s first Open Zone – of Planet Earth in their own time, in their own way. Stepping into the rolling Plains of Eidolon, players will experience a rich landscape populated with both familiar and never-before seen creatures, enemies, a new Warframe, stunning vistas lit with a day/night cycle, and a gripping story told through interactive NPC characters who inhabit the bustling scavenger city of Cetus. In Plains of the Eidolon, players will set foot in a natural landscape with the freedom to explore it on their own terms.
Key features in Plains of Eidolon include:
Landscapes (Open Zones)
Until now, Warframe missions have taken place in relatively closed environments. With the Plains of the Eidolon expansion, players will set foot in a vast natural landscape free to explore on their own terms.
Meet the Inhabitants of Cetus
Never before have Tenno encountered the faceless people whose lives they have saved, until now. Meet the Ostrons, a makeshift group of scavengers whose culture revolves around the grotesque harvesting of biomechanical tissue from long dormant Orokin Towers.
Different Kind of Mission
In addition to discovering and exploring, players will engage in an assortment of missions to find and assemble new Warframes and weapons, items and more. Expect to strap on Archwing for air travel and battle, and experiment with customizing and modding a Warframe like never before.
Discover and Explore
Plains of the Eidolon offers a sense of discovery, variety, and mystery that mixes several different environments and tones to create a deep sense of place. Experience a bristling new world in where the wind rustles across your Syandana and the age and size of giant Orokin structures ominously looms in the background. Earth will be more alive than ever before.
Plains of Eidolon was revealed for the first time during the livestream event at TennoCon 2017 and will release this year.
