Digital Extremes held its annual Tennocon convention for online MMO free-to-play shooter Warframe over the weekend, and revealed details on its new upcoming expansion, Warframe Empyeran.

You’ll be able to siege and steal enemy ships as well call up on active players to take on multi-stage missions from the powerful Railjack battleship, as well as the ability to customise your own ship. On top of all of this will be a new mysterious Kingpin system, of which more details are promised soon. There’s fourty minutes of footage on the new expansion, which we’ve embedded below.

There’s no specific release date yet for Warframe Empyrean, but it’s expected to arrive on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 sometime between later this year and early 2020.

 

On top of this, the main game has gotten a brand new intro movie that’s been directed by one Mr Dan Trachtenberg, who – aside from already having 10 Cloverfield Lane and an episode of Black Mirror to his name – is also the man tapped up to direct the upcoming Uncharted movie.
