Digital Extremes' sci-fi shooter Warframe is coming to mobile. Here is everything you need to know, including the release date, beta tests, gameplay, and more.
First announced back in 2021, Warframe Mobile will give players a taste of Digital Extremes' third-person sci-fi shooter on the small screen, which the developers have promised will "offer the full Warframe experience."
The console and PC versions of the game have been continually updated since its release in 2013, so if the developers keep to their word, we will have quite a game in our pockets.
Many aspects make up Warframe's gameplay, with hundreds - if not thousands - of missions, an elaborate combat system that mixes ninja-like skills, replete with swords and other handheld weapons, and a large assortment of equipment.
There are also the Warframes themselves, specialized fighting suits that give players huge offensive potential - perfect for the mobs of enemies you regularly have to fight off.
If you are interested in learning more about this anticipated release, then read on for all the details.
Warframe Mobile Expected Release Date
Warframe Mobile was released on iOS devices on February 20, 2024.
At the time of writing, it is unclear when the game will be launched on Android. The only comment that the developers have left on the matter is "Warframe on Android will debut at a later date than the upcoming iOS version." We anticipate that Android users can expect to see the game sometime later in 2024.

A perpetual beta test was launched on December 6, 2022, for iOS players only. An Android version will be released at a later date. To be one of the first players to access this beta and be notified of the game's future launch, it is best to pre-register for Warframe Mobile.
