Digital Extremes is offering its 2008 third-person shooter, Dark Sector, for free on Steam until November 30. The game, which inspired the popular Warframe, follows covert operative Hayden Tenno as he navigates a mission in Eastern Europe while dealing with the effects of a bio-weapon. This giveaway coincides with Digital Extremes' recent preview of Warframe's next expansion, Warframe: 1999.
Digital Extremes, the developer of Warframe, has confirmed layoffs resulting from the closure of its publishing division. The studio will no longer be publishing the free-to-play online action-RPG Wayfinder, and control of the property will be returned to developer Airship Syndicate. The exact number of employees affected and the reason behind the decision have not been disclosed. This comes amidst a year of widespread job losses and studio closures in the gaming industry.
