Digital Extremes has shared more on Warframe’s Veilbreaker update, confirming it’ll be launching for all platforms some time in September, and that players will be able to get instant free access to Styanax – the sci-fi shooter’s 50th Warframe – for two weeks after its arrival.
Styanax – who gets a proper introduction in the animated Ascension Day trailer below – is described as a “mighty and herculean” Warframe whose designed is inspired by the ancient Greek warrior Astyanax. His abilities include the Axios Javelin – which can push back enemies on impact, causing damage if they hit a wall – and the Tharros Strike shield, capable of repelling enemies and reducing their shields and armour as it’s swung around, regenerating Styanax’s health with each successfully landed blow.
Styanax can also call on Rally Point to draw enemies to his position and regenerate the energy and shields of nearby allies (regeneration increases as the number of enemies near him grows), or deploy Final Stand – causing him to rise into the air and unleash a barrage of javelins that’ll damage nearby enemies upon hitting the ground. Additional damage occurs on a direct hit.
