Story
They were called Tenno. Warriors of blade and gun: masters of the Warframe armor. Those that survived the old war were left drifting among the ruins. Now they are needed once more.
Gameplay
Warframe is a third-person action game with shooter elements, with the developers describing it as a "space ninja" game. When players first begin, they are thrown into a tutorial that explains many of the game's basic mechanics and at the end, they will get to choose from one of three different Warframes.
Warframes
Warframes are the exo-skeletons that all players wear, granting them various abilities like faster movement speed, the ability to jump higher and even special powers. Each one is different and requires you to purchase them, either with Platinum (in-game currency bought with real-world money) or buying the blueprints with Credits. At the end of the in-game tutorial, you get to choose from one of three Warframes (Excalibur, Loki or Mag).
Weapons
Weapons are your main force in order to inflict damage to enemies and come in three main types, Primary, Secondary and Melee. As you use them, they will gain experience (Affinity) and when it reaches a certain threshold, that weapon will rank up (maximum of 30).

Sentinels
Sentinels are robotic companions, similar to pets in other online games, that will follow the player around and either attack enemies or support the player. They also level up, like with weapions and Warframes, and are able to equip many different things, such as weapons and even their own Modules.
Enemies
There are plenty of enemies that players will encounter while they are on missions, ranging from the standard enemy to even bosses. Each enemy will be described in detail, as well as if they have any weaknesses or not.
