In the new update, the 65th Warframe is actually two Warframes in one. I spoke exclusively with Rebecca Ford, Warframe\u2019s Creative Director, ahead of the new chapter\u2019s launch to talk about the mechanics of switching between characters, Ryoku\u2019s Railjack \u2013 which we\u2019re exclusively revealing, the long-awaited Stug Incarnon, and how the new update was partially inspired by Super Smash Bros.<\/p>\n<p>The Super Smash Bros. DNA inside Jade Shadows: Constellations<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a Super Smash Bros. reference for all of our choices because originally we did not know what to do with Sirius and Orion,\u201d Ford says, referring to the two characters who share a Frame in Jade Shadows: Constellations. \u201cI was like, okay, this is going to kind of be like having Pit or Dark Pit or Samus and Dark Samus in the Smash roster. They&#8217;re two different characters, but they&#8217;re a very similar flavor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI saw a lot of people saying, \u2018This is Ice Climbers,\u2019 which is great. We want Cain and Abel. We want biblical and heavenly levels of cosmic violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jade Shadows: Constellations, the next Narrative Chapter of Warframe, is being released on June 17 and, according to the development team, it\u2019s unlike anything Warframe players have seen before.
