Warframe, the highly popular free-to-play sci-fi third-person shooter game, is finally about to land on mobile devices starting with iOS. Digital Extremes, the Canadian studio behind Warframe, has revealed in a blog post that the title is about to launch on Apple's ecosystem, joining the likes of Death Stranding Director’s Cut and many more.

Logging in during launch week (beginning February 20) will allow them to claim the following free Day 1 Login Rewards: a 3-Day Affinity Booster and a Bombyx Syandana.
