Digital Extremes, the game studio behind hit co-op shooter Warframe, recently hosted a Devstream on YouTube and revealed that the game's next content would arrive on October 15. The Vallis Undermind, as the update is titled, will be introducing a slew of new content to the game, not the least of which is a new playable warframe for players to unlock and play as. The update will also feature The Deepmines, which is a new playable area located under Orb Vallis and accessible via the Fortuna hub. There are also a host of visual reworks, specifically to the Tenno face visuals and animations. The long-awaited Oberon rework will also be launching on October 15, delivering a total rework of all of his abilities and stats to make him more defensive and allow him to once again act as a more flexible support frame after the companion rework.
Nokko is the latest playable frame to come to the game and the 62nd warframe to launch since the game launched to open beta in March 2013. Aesthetically and in terms of abilities, Nokko follows a mushroom theme, with abilities that involve spreading poisonous, contagious spores, planting a glowing mushroom for a buff, and casting off explosive mushroom projectiles. Nokko can be built using blueprints earned via completing the new Undermined quest and parts farmed from The Deepmines on Fortuna.
