Warframe gameplay

Warframe is an action role-playing third-person shooter (TPS) multiplayer online game that also incorporates stealth mechanics. From the beginning, players have to choose a Warframe - an armor with different skills and stats that will influence the gameplay. The complete Warframe tier list is available online. Completing missions earns experience, which allows players and their equipment to level up, while the different equipment mods bring passive or negative bonuses and abilities. Players also have the possibility to obtain mods through an in-game currency called Platinum, but also through microtransactions with real money. In Warframe, levels are procedurally generated and there are open-world areas.
