Warframe – Saints of the Altra update out today on Switch, details and trailer

Digital Extremes has announced that Warframe’s Saint of the Altra update is out on consoles today, including Switch. The patch features the new Warframe, Gauss, along with the Shawzin instrument, an expanded Disruption Mode, and more.

Here’s a bunch of information about the Saint of the Altra update:

The fleet-footed new Warframe blindsides the toughest of enemies by generating kinetic energy to wield powerful moves and Abilities. Players with a musical bent can create, record, play and share the enticing Shawzin Emote and become the Origin’s Systems most renowned bard! And the popular, endless Disruption Mode, introduced in The Jovian Concord, has expanded to new planets, mission types, and factions to challenge players across the Origin System. Get the new Saint of Altra update today for free.

The 41st Warframe offers a suite of Abilities using kinetic movement to build up his unique speed gauge to unleash an arsenal of offensive and defensive Abilities. They include Mach Rush, Kinetic Plating, Thermal Sunder, and Redline. More details on each Ability can be found on the Warframe website. Gauss can be constructed from parts acquired free in-game, purchased in the Marketplace, standalone or as part of a bundle.

The Saint of Altra update features a brand new way to enjoy Warframe now that one of the community’s favorite emotes has become a playable instrument. The guitar-like Shawzin instrument (available in the Marketplace) offers Tenno the ability to create their own songs (or re-create their favorite ones), record, play and share them with other players. Strum us a song, Tenno!

And for players who want a genuinely tough challenge, Disruption Mode has expanded. As a result of the corrupt Alad V’s sale of black market technology across the Origin System, the popular Disruption Mode has spread across the Origin system. The stakes have been raised in the expanded mode newly outfitted with some of the toughest enemies and coolest rewards!

Additional new features in today’s update include:

– With the new Look Link and Mod Link chat features, players can generate a link to their chosen Warframe design or Mod Loadout and post it to share in chat, or import a shared design and loadout from a fellow Tenno with a simple click — radically simplifying and speeding up the ability to expand one’s Warframe “wardrobe.”
– Available for purchase in the Marketplace, the Harrow Deluxe Collection features a new Deluxe Skin, a matching Armor Set and Weapon Deluxe Skin for Spearguns.
– Infested Dojo Decoration Set: Decorate your clan Dojo with an aesthetic inspired by the Infection faction.
Riven Slot Increase: Expand your arsenal of Riven Mods — players can now increase their collection of Riven Mods from 90 to 120.
