Warframe's The Deadlock Protocol Drops This Week

Cool news for Warframe fans this week as their upcoming expansion The Deadlock Protocol will finally be released into the game this week. We have the details for you below of what will come with this expansion, but the biggest addition of it all is the 43rd Warframe in the form of Protea. Along with that, you get a little more backstory as the developers are using this to introduce the Corpus Faction's dramatic origin story. Basically, players are in for a ton of fun as they learn more about the story behind the cult-hit game. Enjoy the info, screenshots, and the trailers below.

Boss Fight Enhanced, Parkour Perfect

The first playable tileset in Warframe, nearly every aspect of the Corpus' early environment has been upgraded, starting with gameplay. Fresh challenges lie in wait with the renewed Jackal boss, a fight sequence now extended across multiple levels that dares players to rethink tactics against this aggressively revamped boss. The new Granum Crowns bring a spendable currency that opens up a wild variety of gameplay options, including being transported to a surprising new Corpus netherrealm. And now nearly every wall, corridor, and room supports intense parkour mobility.

Corpus Origins Revealed

The Deadlock Protocol weaves larger-scale story implications into the modern Warframe narrative. Players must investigate the Corpus Faction's desperate ploy to break their board's political in-fighting. Through combat and discovery, Tenno will learn a small Corpus sub-faction has begun a devious plan to resurrect the faction's founder, a revival posing an alarming new threat to the Origin System's balance. Determined to strengthen their armada and bolster a growing space fleet against the Sentients and the Tenno, the Corpus' plans for unbridled power must be put to an end. Do you have what it takes to confront the new Corpus threat, Tenno?

Introducing Protea, the 43rd Warframe

Led by the powerful Ability to stop enemies in their tracks by rewinding time, Protea's array of offensive and defensive grenades, drones, and turrets brings a battle tactician's edge to the fight. Players can investigate her origin story as the former Corpus head bodyguard in her own unique Quest, and uncover a quiver of technologically advanced weapons from the new Corpus Armor Set and Primary Rifle to the Gunblade Melee, new Kitguns throughout the update.
