Those playing Digital Extremes’ excellent free-to-play shooter Warframe on PC, there’s a new hotfix out now! Officially called the Warframe hotfix 25.4.2, it has a host of optimization tweaks, bug squashes, and even some changes to the gameplay too! Check out the Warframe hotfix 25.4.2 patch notes below.

Warframe hotfix 25.4.2 patch notes:

Changes:

• Increased the drop rate of the Bloodshed Sigil from 1% to 3% from the Profit-Taker.

• Fixed a case of an inability to Rank up within a Syndicate that you’ve already Ranked up in (but made them mad so you got demoted).
• Fixed a case of receiving an error prompt when attempting to increase a Focus pool.
• Fixed an issue in the Focus Manager where increasing the Pool Capacity and backing out to the Operator screen, then back into the Focus manager causing all Focus Schools to show the cost of the Capacity upgrade being applied to every School instead of just the current one.
