Warframe Charity Event Raising Money for Breast Cancer Research

Last year, a Warframe charity event held to help breast cancer research managed to raise over $100,000 with the help of its players. Now, Digital Extremes is going at it again with a second round of their Quest to Conquer Cancer inititive, using their eight-year old looter-shooter to support a good cause.

Partnering with the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation in Toronto, Onterio, this monthlong charity event starts at 2 PM Eastern and will primarily be held through special Warframe charity streams hosted by some of the most-watched and up-and-coming content creators in the Warframe community. Donations made via the Donor Drive extension or directly through the Quest to Conquer Cancer Donor Drive page will count towards reward tiers that will unlock in-game content for all players. In addition, there’s also a selection of charity merchandise in stylish breast cancer awareness pink available on the official store. Of particular note is the Conquera Kuaka Floof Plush, which comes with a free in-game copy if purchased, whether by itself or as part of the Conquera Collection.

Sheldon Carter, the COO of Digital Extremes, said about the event:

“Giving back to our community has always been part of the Warframe spirit and our community of players have always been known to be inclusive, welcoming, and charitable beyond belief. For the second year, we’re creating an exciting program that engages and rewards players while raising awareness and funds to fight for a cause that affects the lives of so many around us.”
