Gauss enters Warframe as its 41st playable ‘frame with this week’s Saint of Altra update

It’s about to be a good week for Warframe fans as Digital Extremes is rolling out the Saint of Altra update with the new playable Gauss ‘frame. He’s a kinetic-oriented ‘frame notable for being able to dash across water, smashing into mobs with a shockwave, and charging up to buff himself and give the baddies one helluva freezy headache. The patch also drops the Shawzin Hero Emote, which as we’ve previously covered is effectively your very own guitar hero, right in the game.

“Canadian publisher and developer Digital Extremes is ready to unharness the blazing power and speed of its new Warframe, Gauss, along with a cool collection of enticing updates for Warframe players in the Saint of Altra update coming this week on PC. The fleet-footed Gauss blindsides the toughest of enemies by generating kinetic energy to wield an assortment of powerful moves and Abilities. The popular, endless Disruption Mode introduced in The Jovian Concord has expanded to new planets, mission types, and factions to truly challenge players across the Origin System. And Digital Extremes will soon grant players the chance to upscale an endless variety of fashion frames and Mods with the new ‘Look Link’ and ‘Mod Link’ chat features.”

PC launch is coming this week, while console launch is expected “within the month.”
