The first Warframe update for console in 2017, The Glast Gambit, released today on PS4 and Xbox One, bringing with it a heap of new content and fixes.
Warframe now has a new quest as well as new weapons and mods to try out, this also includes Nidus which comes complete with new infested powers.
“The Glast Gambit is free and ready to dive into for all players who have completed last year’s biggest cinematic quest, The War Within,” the official Warframe dev notes explain.
“Summoned by Ergo Glast of the Perrin Sequence to the outpost known as the Mycona Colony, players will uncover the colonist’s questionable practices and a mysterious figure key to their 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. Confront Nef in The Index and beat him at his own game, but beware Tenno, not all is as it seems.”

New Game Mode – Infested Salvage:
- A ship and its crew have fallen victim to the Infestation they were researching. Locate the ship’s manifest to recover their extensive research, but be fast as a corrosive gas fills the ship degrading your armor integrity.
- You can find this new mission type on Oestrus, Eris
New Warframe – Nidus:
Command the Infestation to mutate and grow ever more destructive.
• Virulence
o Rupture the ground with a damaging fungal growth that steals energy from each enemy it strikes. For every five enemies hit, the Infestation mutates, multiplying its destructive force.
• Larva
o Spawn an infested pod that erupts with tendrils, latches onto nearby enemies and pulls them in.
• Parasitic Link
o Bind to a target with a parasitic link. For allies, both the host and Nidus deal increased damage. Linked enemies take the damage inflicted on Nidus.
• Ravenous
o Gluttonous maggots swarm nearby enemies, feasting until they burst with Infestation. The maggots benefit from Mutation and each enemy consumed adds to the Mutation stack.
New Infested Weapons:
HEMA
• A bloodsucker. This symbiotic burst-rifle leeches health to forge its ammo and then restores health with each headshot
HIRUDO
• Rip into the enemy with fists of razor sharp cartilage. Steals health with each critical hit.
New Cosmetics:
- Thorac Syandana
- A sinuous spine of Infested anatomy.
- Winter Glyph Bundle
- TENNOGEN

State of Decay 2 on Xbox One and Windows
6 New Melee Mods have been added! Discover them from the bodies of your enemies or in Mod Packs:
- • Dispatch Overdrive – On Melee Channel Kill: +60% Movement speed for 15 seconds.
- • Healing Return – +11 Healed when hitting a target affected by status.
- • Condition Overload – +60% Melee Damage for each status type affecting the target.
- • Relentless Combination – +100% combo chance when Slash Status deals damage.
- • Guardian Derision – Blocking taunts enemies within 15 meters to target you instead of allies.
- • Enduring Affliction – +150% Status duration on hit.
4 New Warframe Augment Mods have been added to their respective Syndicate offerings:
- • Frost: Icy Avalanche (Avalanche) – Grants allies within the radius a coat of ice that absorbs 60 damage per enemy hit.
- • Hydroid: Corroding Barrage (Tempest Barrage) – Each projectile has a 100% chance of inflicting a Corrosive status effect.
- • Loki: Savior Decoy (Decoy) – If Loki takes fatal damage, Decoy absorbs the damage and swaps locations. Also increased casting speed of Decoy by 50%.

Additions:
- • Lua is now an available location for Sortie missions!
- • Added Lotus tutorial transmissions to Spy missions, Survival missions, and Void Fissure missions. Fun fact: there is an option in your in-game Audio settings titled ‘Enable Hint Transmissions’ (previously was ‘Enable Tutorial Transmission’). Enabling this will give you those Lotus ‘help’ transmissions that play throughout the mission, and disabling it prevents them from playing.

- • Added ability to purchase Decorations from the placement selection screen in Decorator Mode.
- • Added a new UI animation on abilities icons that are currently active
Changes:

- o Loki’s Decoy
- o Chroma’s Vex Armor
- o Saryn’s Spores and Toxic Lash

- o Inaros’ Scarab Swarm
- o Oberon’s Smite
- o Ash’s Smoke Screen
- o Equinox’s Metamorphosis

- • Market items that contain more than 1 copy of the item have been updated so that buying 1 will not break up the unit prices but will display total amount you will receive. Buying more than 1 will show the unit price, total price, and total amount received.
- • Quests will now be sorted in the Codex by recommended order of completion.
