Warframe Nidus update: The Glast Gambit revealed following PS4 Pro release news
WARFRAME NIDUS update: The final release for Warframe in 2016 will be going live today on PC in the form of The Glast Glambit, Digital Extremes confirmed today.
The Warframe Nidus update will be free for all new and existing users, and includes a new quest as well as new weapons and mods.
As stated above, The Glast Gambit will also feature the Infested powers of the newest Warframe, Nidus, with players uncovering a colony engaged in questionable practices and a mysterious figure key to its success.
“Profit-driven Corpus aristocrat Nef Anyo has stolen the children of the Mycona and it’s up to the Tenno to bring them back,” Digital Extremes explains.
“Confront Nef in The Index and beat him at his own game, but beware Tenno, not all is as it seems.”
While the new content lands on PC today, it’s currently unclear when it will arrive on consoles.
Plague your foes with a new Warframe, new Weapons, new Quest and more!

The Glast Gambit update includes:
NEW WARFRAME UPDATE: Plague your enemies with the Infested powers of Lotus’ newest warrior, Nidus. Spread the Infestation by spawning maggots that seek nearby enemies, manifest plagued tendrils that will immobilize foes, and redistribute the damage you take to infected victims.
NEW QUEST: Nef Anyo has stolen the children of the Mycona Colony, and the Tenno must challenge Nef in The Index and beat him at his own game.
NEW WEAPONS: Handle new Weapons and Customizations with care as they have been corrupted by the Infestation:
HEMA: Wield this symbiotic burst-rifle designed to leech health to forge its ammo, and then restore health with each headshot.
HIRUDO: Rip into the enemy with fists of razor sharp cartilage. Steals health with each critical hit.
RIVEN MODS: Expand your strength by wielding new Riven Mods for Secondary Weapons -- but know that you must prove yourself before their powers are revealed.
THORAC SYANDANA: Drape yourself with the new sinuous spine of Infested anatomy.
It follow news of Warframe’s PS4 Pro release, which has been confirmed for 2017 by Studio Manager Sheldon Carter.
“Warframe currently offers base support for PS4 Pro. Essentially, because of the PS4 Pro’s beefier hardware, Warframe runs better currently without any additional work from our side,” Carter told Wccftech.
“However, we are planning to take advantage of what the PS4 Pro offers in an official way in 2017. So yeah, I personally am looking forward to seeing how badass Warframe will look using the PlayStation 4 Pro’s tech.”
