For those unfamiliar with how the team handles content in Warframe, all major updates have been free, including expansions that have added entirely new open-world areas to the game and several other features.
There is a large amount of microtransactions in the form of cosmetics, resources, and even upgrades, but otherwise, the title is entirely free-to-play, with all significant content being available for free for every player.
These content drops usually drop several months apart from one another, though Warframe does keep players entertained with events and other updates between the major drops. But when a massive content drop does happen, no matter the reception of it post-release, many can agree that the content doesn’t match your standard GaaS drop, as they’re typically game-altering drops that feel more in line with a paid expansion, rather than being free.
