Almost three weeks after it was first released on PC, the Archwing update is now finally available on the PS4 version of Warframe as well. The update adds new weapons, quests, syndicates, mods, skins, enemies, and more! However, the best part of the update is undoubtedly the addition of the titular Archwing technology. Warframe already allows you to play as a spacefaring badass ninja who wields all sorts of crazy weapons and powers. Well, now thanks to the Archwing update you can also literally fly through space without a spacecraft and look just as cool as you did before while doing it.
