Crossplay is coming to Warframe: Community testing announced

sportskeeda.com:

Warframe is one of the most successful free-to-play games in the history of the medium, and it's not slowing down. The game is finally getting a feature that fans have been demanding for almost a decade that will surely revitalize the game.

Every year, Digital Extremes holds a massive event called TennoCon, which informs fans of the following year's events. This year's convention finally assured players that crossplay is coming to the groundbreaking third-person shooter. Players can finally join friends and enemies regardless of the platform they use.

After an undefined internal testing period, community crossplay testing is coming to Warframe. While many details are still in the dark, some interesting pieces of information have been revealed.

Last year's TennoCon announced that crossplay, cross-save, and even a mobile port are coming to the franchise. Unfortunately, this year's keynote at the convention revealed that the feature isn't ready yet.

By all accounts, crossplay is coming to the game, but it isn't ready yet. A lot of features for new games experience a year or more of community testing before making it into the proper game. This means that fans hoping to experience the game with friends across platforms might not be able to for quite some time.

The dates for the crossplay mechanics community testing period haven't been revealed. The details of whether this will be a closed beta with selected participants or a free-for-all open beta are also still unknown. While it's unclear exactly who will get to test the system, more news is expected to come out soon.

Warframe dropped in 2013 and was originally exclusive to PC. Across the game's lifespan, it has featured in four distinct ports and is set to get a couple more.
