Global game developer and publisher Digital Extremes’ anticipated free Warframe update The Duviri Paradox is available today for all platforms and invites all players to join it on a wild, time loop journey through Duviri’s fractured and ever-changing multidimensional world. The Duviri Paradox introduces an exciting new way to experience the excitement of the online sci-fi MMO. It is Warframe’s first story-driven cinematic update that is not tied to progression and can be enjoyed by all players for free, regardless of skill level. experience or familiarity with the game.

A new gameplay launch trailer delves deeper into the story of The Duviri Paradox and shows more of the ever-changing open world that players will traverse with their Kaithe as they unravel Duviri’s secrets and defeat new enemies with exciting combat, including the fearsome Orowyrm:

“The Duviri paradox really deviates completely from our approach to open world design. Everything from the aesthetics and color to thematic elements, gameplay mechanics, our approach to storytelling and accessibility, this update revises how a new player can experience Warframe, while retaining the classic elements of Warframe’s insanely frenetic gameplay that returning players love and expect us to,” said Rebecca Ford, Creative Director for Warframe at Digital Extremes. “This update is the final piece in the Drifter’s story before we move on to our next multi-year storyline that will explore more of the Drifter and Operator’s journey as we prepare to learn more about The Man in the Wall.”

Starting today, new players jumping into Warframe for the first time will be presented with two choices when starting the game: begin their journey with The Duviri Paradox as the Drifter or begin their journey through the game’s main path with a Warframe. This choice does not affect or lock in a player’s ability to experience the other side. For returning players, The Duviri Paradox Quest will be available in their codex and Duviri will appear on their Star Chart when the update launches later today. All players continue their post-Quest journey in Duviri by selecting one of three game modes: ‘The Circuit,’ which offers a new Warframe Only endless game mode, ‘The Duviri Experience,’ an adventure in a fully open world, and ‘The Lone Story’ for a solo narrative experience.

Discover an evolving open world full of new challenges and intriguing rewards

The Duviri Paradox introduces players to the fourth open world of Waframe – a fractured and unknown world made up of strange floating islands ruled by Dominus Thrax where environments and colors shift and transpose as the mood of the child king spirals through fear, anger, joy, envy and sadness. Each mood in The Duviri Paradox is different in environments, combat and interactions, where enemies and the citizens of Duviri look, react and behave differently and colors change to create a new experience with each step in Duviri. For returning players, the update improves the Drifter experience by adding an upgraded melee combat system and adding Intrinsics so players can upgrade their Combat, Riding Abilities, Opportunity and Endurance. As players progress through the story each day, they also unlock Decrees that offer random powerful upgrades that reset with each new mood spiral. In addition to playing the main story, players can participate in optional side activities in Duviri that reward them with Decrees, Intrinsics, Resources and more, including Fishing, Conservation, Herding, Kaithe Racing, Puzzles and Hidden Chests, and even Shawzin Playing. Players who want a break from Duviri’s endless action can even play board games with the NPCs present.

More experienced players can also take advantage of the new Incarnon Genesis system and install Incarnon adapters to unlock a selection of eligible weapons and enhancements for use during missions. Incarnon adapters are only available in Steel Path Circuit missions on Duviri and players should be prepared for a more challenging experience.
