Beginning by showing off the new open-world gameplay ofHeart of Deimos, the demo shows off the stunning landscape of the new infested planet, Deimos. In addition to adding a huge new world for players to explore, this new update alsoimprovesWarframe’s storywith heavy new lore drops about the nature of the Tenno and the source of their powers. However, even with some fantastic new characters like Loid/Otak, the best new additions looks to be the new enemy types and mountable creatures around the world of Deimos.
One thing that the familiar level design ofWarframeand other similar titlesdoes wonderfully is the way that the world this update takes place in completely integrates with the main enemy faction of the world, the Infested. The major difference betweenHeart of Deimosand the rest ofWarframe’s relation to the Infested is that thanks to the planet being completely overtaken by the infestation, there are brand new enemies to fight. One of the most impressive is an infected creature that doesn’t have an official name, which has a very unique style of combat that requires the player to break its infected shoulders to quickly disarm it and bring the creature down quickly.
Everything that the new demo shows off, from new enemies to giant mosquito monsters that can be ridden around the open-world,Heart of Deimosis looking to be a substantial addition toWarframe. This isn’t even getting into every new enemy type and the ancient machine faction that was almost accidentally revealed, or the overpowered mode players can activate to wipe out waves of enemies.Heart of Deimosis absolutely packed full of content, withnewWarframeenemies and loot to farm, there is plenty for players to enjoy.
Heart of Deimosis set to release on August 25th, for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
