Installation steps

  1. 1

    Install the PlayBound Launcher, then find Warframe and press Install. The launcher downloads the official release, unpacks it and creates a shortcut. This is the fastest route and it never uses third-party mirrors.

  2. 2

    Alternatively, download Warframe directly from the official site at http://www.warframe.com. Always download from the official source — third-party mirrors of free games are a common malware vector.
