Which game is it about? We’re talking about Dark Sector, an action shooter from Digital Extremes – the developers of Warframe. Dark Sector serves as the predecessor to the free-to-play shooter and laid the groundwork for its development.

What is Dark Sector about? You take on the role of secret agent Hayden Tenno, who becomes infected during an attack with the Technocyte Virus. The virus is a dangerous bioweapon that turns those infected into aggressive killing machines.
You will accompany Tenno on his journey to fight against the effects of the virus while utilizing the powers granted to him by the virus. Dark Sector primarily offers a single-player experience but also features a multiplayer mode where you can compete against other players.
In Dark Sector, there is no HUD, and the third-person perspective allows you to see directly over Tenno’s shoulders. With a sword that grows from his arm, you also have the option to slice through enemies in close combat.
Although the game is already 16 years old, it offers several hours of fun – especially for those interested in Warframe and its lore. The next major story update for Warframe will be released in December, featuring Warframe: 1999, bringing several new features. However, a specific date has not yet been announced. A demo is already available to play.
Meanwhile, another MMO project from developer Digital Extremes is opening its doors wider and inviting up to 10,000 players each week to try the demo of their latest game, which features a slightly different setting: Fantasy MMORPG hope Soulframe is slowly starting – All info on how you can get involved
