The maps are also brilliantly varied, including Pluto, the Moon, the dwarf planets of Ceres and Sedna. Whether diving into quest-driven PVE action or dabbling in competitive deathmatches, Warframe always feels like its own unique entity. If you’re feeling flush you can buy some Platinum on the Xbox Store, but you don’t spend all your pennies on sci-fi bling to enjoy Warframe - the pleasure of zipping about with its somersaulting stars is gratifying enough as is. Best of all, despite being free-to-play, even the most frugal firefight fans can enjoy breakneck multiplayer without ever prying open their change purses.

Thanks to regular updates, Warframe has attracted a hardcore community, and the game’s blend of gravity defying melee attacks and boisterous sci-fi blasting are unlike anything else out there.
