Warframe announced for Switch, Panic Button working on the port

Warframe is coming to Switch, Digital Extremes announced at TennoCon today. Panic Button, who previously ported Doom, Wolfenstein II, and Rocket League to Nintendo’s console, is working on the release.

[Asuka]

Amazing. Love Warframe. Gonna give me more reasons to never put my Switch down lol.

[ZaWarudo]

Nice.

[gangsta_red]

That's really cool

[King_Lothric]

The Port Switch

[Prince_TFK]

Oh yeah no other consoles ever get port of games, ever.

[Akarogg]

Didn't know ps4 had exclusives only

[victorMaje]

The switch just went ding!
Congrats to all switch owners.

[AgeInTheCage]

Every game thats on switch is automatically better and way over hyped by the switch crowd. It can be the most minute indi and switch fans will celebrate it like its the next zelda.

[Prince_TFK]

Maybe instead of hating it you should ask your parents to buy you one so you can understand why people are happy to play games on the go.

[AgeInTheCage]

I have the vastly superior ps4 and the great xboxone, i work 5 days a week and own my own home. If i wanted to game on the go i would get a vita. So gaming on the go is not much of a big deal to me because when im out being social the last thing i need is a heavy overrated handheld when i can play most of the indies on my phone if i get bored.

Parent jokes? Please kid.

[Prince_TFK]

An adult wouldn’t have any reason to hate on a plastic console you know, like what you are doing on every Switch articles.

“If i wanted to game on the go i would get a vita.”

“i can play most of the indies on my phone if i get bored. ”

Why would you want a Vita when you can get a much superior console in the Switch? And what does phone have anything to do with Nintendo games? You can play games like Zelda, Wolf 2, Skyrim, or this game on your phone?

@AgeInTheCage

If you truly are an adult your behavior is even more embarrassing. I've seen you hating on Nintendo and Microsoft in many comments. Basically, only your favorite console has any value in your mind and everyone else's preferences must be bashed. No mature adult should be acting that way.

[Old McGroin]

@AgeInTheCage

Lol at you trying to sound all grown up and mature while at the same time going on websites to hate on a toy because you don't have it :D lololol

[Ricegum]

I agree with Kun

Having a Switch is really something great, being able to play these games on the go is a bit of a game changer for me. Also, I wouldn't get to enjoy fantastic games like Octopath Traveler or the upcoming Smash Bros.

Getting a Switch is one of my best decisions.

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

And haters will do the exact opposite, while hypocritically forgetting that the other two systems have libraries that are STACKED with ports, that they cheered for quite a bit.

Quit acting salty every time the Switch gets a third party, bud.
You guys bitched and moaned about Nintendo not having enough third party to vary the library the entirety of last gen.
That's changing, and whether the games are to your taste or not is irrelevant.
Either stop flip-flopping on whether or not you think Switch is better off with these third party games, or stop flapping your jaw entirely.

[MrSwankSinatra]

lmaoooo why are you so salty, jesus?

[Akarogg]

I have the vastly superior PC to your PS4 and Xbox One. I also have the Switch.

[Gemmol]

Switch getting too much games

[Majin-vegeta]

*ports

[Prince_TFK]

Are ports not game?

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

Someone forgot about the Port-station 4's early days.

Hypocrites need to take a seat; there is nothing wrong with these kinds of games hitting the Switch.

[MrSwankSinatra]

ports are games dummy

[Adnanilyas21]

This looks good, ita Free to play so i will definitely be checking it out. is it any good people?

[Elwenil]

As a Warframe vet it's a great game, but the grind is real. Still, lots of fun with friends. To me, it's probably the best free-to-play game out there and while they do want you to buy stuff to support the game, it's not constantly in your face and none of it is necessary. The community is pretty good for the most part and DE really listens to the players on most things.

A word of caution before anyone even gets it in their head, don't get excited about account migrations or one company or another "locking" your content.

[Adnanilyas21]

Thanos for the info

[thesoftware730]

I like panic button..they are highly skilled to bring some of these games over to the Switch.

[Prince_TFK]

I feel like any devs who say “it can’t be done on the Switch!” should just contact Panic Button to help them do it.

[strayanalog]

Must be the announcement Panic teased a short time ago. Hmm. I'm happy for the ones that are happy, but I'm going to pass.

[343_Guilty_Spark]

It’s a pretty game with ugly art style

[starchild]

Hmm I really like the art style. To each their own.

[Akarogg]

How can you think it is pretty if you think it has an ugly art style?

[343_Guilty_Spark]

Not a fan of the art style. But it’s very clean graphically.

[TheRealAwest815]

They need to port WARFACE to nintendo switch

[PUBG]

It's good to see the switch getting games.

[vladstad]

man Panic Button is getting all the love

[paintedgamer1984]

The switch needs all the 3rd party love it can get after 3 straight third partys play like dog sh!t.

Switch owners mentality:

Ohh yay im totally fine playing this overpriced, inferior version, because its portable and has motion controls 🙄. Whos willinh to bet this game that is 10$ on psn, nintendo will charge 59.99... i cant even

Nintendo dont charge that! The devs do!! Surrre

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

Give it a rest, kid.
You and every other Nintendo hater like you.
Stop coming into Switch threads if you don't actually care about the system, and stop trying to downplay every Switch game announcement that comes around, since you obviously have no intention of giving any third party whatsoever any sort of credit for their efforts on Switch.

You've got no business here, and you have no clue what you're talking about [which shows, because you're under the delusion that Nintendo is the one that sets the prices for third party games that Nintendo doesn't make.]
Playstation 4 fans did the exact same thing whenever something hit the system, as did XBox fans with their XB1 ports.
But I'm willing to bet, like any other hypocrite, you didn't utter a PEEP against ports back then, because they looked pretty enough to stroke your graphics elitism.

You're not special.
You're not above anyone here.
We're tired of hearing your salt whenever a game, that you would obviously be happy about if it were releasing anywhere else with a new port, remake, or remaster, comes to Switch.

If those other versions are oh-so-much-better, then shut your trap and go play them elsewhere, like someone who ACTUALLY DOESN'T CARE ABOUT SWITCH, instead of heckling everyone here who's happy to see another game hitting the system.

[MrSwankSinatra]

man you dudes complaining about this are such damn crybabies. like who honestly gets mad at other gamers being happy that a game is coming to their platform of choice. like are you that damn insecure? maybe yall need to put down the controller and experience real life, cause yall look stupid on here.

[starchild]

Oh be quiet. You are a PS4 fanboy. You yourself are playing and paying for inferior, third rate versions of multiplats. And you don't even get the advantage of portability. If you really cared that much about playing the superior version you'd be playing on PC like me. You're just being a hypocrite.

[PhantomS42]

Didn't care for this free to play mmo but that's neat. I honestly forgot that it even existed.

[WPX]

Nice!!
now the other interesting question is... Will it have cross-play?

[The 10th Rider]

Likely not as the PC version is generally a few updates ahead of the console versions.

[WPX]

Aw Heck. It would've nice but oh well. Still going to download and enjoy it.
I hope my current storage space is enough when it lands, lol.

[bamillington]

more games the better

[Enate]

As someone who has played on PC since the games first closed beta. An have tried the game out on consoles. I am curious about performance on the switch. As I honestly find this is one game I have trouble playing on anything besides my PC. Based on the fps difference and fluidity difference I feel when playing on PC vs consoles.

[Akarogg]

It will probably target 30 fps and be at 720p

[Exvalos]

Very good f2p.

[Thomaticus]

Warframe coming to Switch is great news, but the new editions coming to the game is the real headline.
Warframe has put destiny completely to shame.

[joab777]

This is what Switch needs more of for sure.

Though for the millionth time, it’s also another reason for SOMEONE other than Nintendo to make a handheld that can play their games. I don’t care who it is. If MS or Sony or Google created a handheld that played its games at 720p, and also had the Google Play store, it would be amazing. One stop shop! If Sony did it, they could include Vue and Now.

C’mon. I am dying for this! There are a few mobile games I love and I hate having to bring my phone, a tablet, a Switch, a shield, a laptop, a console...everywhere I go lmao! Give me this! Please! It’s time!

[Akarogg]

Good ol' Panic Button is on the job again

[Platformgamer]

the switch is 32GB spaceful am i right?

[Sirk7x]

Panic Button are wizards man. I'd like to see them make an original game on Switch. They really know how to utilize and push the hardware.

[Kokyu]

There is nothing inappropriate about my previous comment. If nintendroids cant handle it stay off the internet.

[Father__Merrin]

Warframe switch will have to heavily be turned down. How will online communication work

[trouble_bubble]

Through your phone I think? Horrible. Hopefully Warframe isn’t locked behind their online subscription paywall like FTPs on Xbox. Would give their sticks and stones network a shot in the arm.

[Shiken]

Native voicechat, just like Fortnite, more than likely.

[edeprez]

Tennocon? I had no idea Warframe had their own conference.
