Warframe’s latest expansion, with a new cinematic quest, Whispers in the Walls, arrives today, along with cross-save beginning its rollout, and the 55th Warframe, Qorvex.
Warframe's big, weird Whispers in the Walls expansion out in December with cross-save
24.11.2023 - 22:03 / eurogamer.net
Back in August, as part of this year's TennoCon celebrations, Digital Extremes unveiled Whispers in the Walls, the next (and extremely weird) chapter in the free-to-play sci-fi shooter's ongoing saga. And as its December launch approaches, the developer has shared a heap of new information on what to expect come the expansion's release, including confirmation it'll arrive alongside cross-save support.
Whispers in the Walls, you might recall, introduces new missions types, NPCs, bosses, and factions, alongside a new hub known as The Sanctum, and procedural tile set. It's an expansion primarily focused around the long-hidden laboratory of Albrecht Entrati deep in the bowels of the planet Deimos, and one that'll reveal the «proverbial big bang» that kicked off every event in Warframe.
In terms of enemies, the labyrinthine laboratory plays host to a much-expanded Necramech faction, including new Necrodogs, that players can battle using Whispers in the Walls' new Grimoire, a secondary weapon capable of flinging pages of devastating Void. But that's not the expansion's only new threat; at certain points, players will find themselves whisked away from the gothic gloom of Albrecht's lab to a vast Eldritch desert that serves as the home of the mysterious Man in the Wall. Here, they'll encounter a second new faction, the Murmur, nightmarish multi-limbed creatures resembling tech-infused biblical angels.
Whispers in the Walls kicks off with an hour-long story campaign that, Digital Extremes has now confirmed, will include the jaw-droppingly leftfield sequence that wowed the crowds at TennoCon — in which players suddenly find themselves flung back in time, playing as new character Arthur and battling through a subway station to the sounds of Nine Inch Nails on New Year's Eve in 1999. It's a moment designed to elicit at lot of 'whys' and will set up a story continuing in Warframe's 1999 expansion next year.
Whispers in the Walls' campaign will be available once players have completed Warframe's Heart of Deimos story mission in order to play, and Digital Extremes has now confirmed it'll be attempting to make Warframe's story content a easier to experience when the expansion arrives. Essentially, it'll be removing Mastery Rank requirements from story progression, meaning players can forge ahead through the game's decade of narrative content without being beholden to Mastery Rank's 24 hour cool-down. To go even faster, a premium Power Pack upgrade option will be made available, basically letting players pay real money to level up and skip the content grind between story missions if they so choose.
And once Whispers in the Walls' story campaign is complete, players can jump straight into some classic Warframe
