While Warframe doesn’t quite have the horror that most fans are looking for, its precursor in 2008’s Dark Sector definitely has some Resident Evil 4 vibes. And if you’ve never experienced Dark Sector, you can grab it now on Steam for free until November 30th.
Per IGN, as part of the celebration for the upcoming free Warframe: 1999 expansion that’s set to arrive next month, developer Digital Extremes has made Dark Sector free to claim on Steam. The game was originally released for the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360, and was subsequently released on Steam in 2009.
The game is set in the fictional Eastern Bloc country of Lasria, which has seen an epidemic of a mysterious infection called “Technocyte,” which has wreaked havoc among the populace with widespread mutation. Players take on the role of CIA agent Hayden Tenno (voiced by Michael Rosenbaum) on a mission to intercept a rogue agent named Robert Mezner, who intends to spread the virus and achieve control of the world. Hayden’s right arm eventually becomes infected with the Technocyte virus, which grants him new abilities, including a glaive weapon grown from his arm.
While not a hit for Digital Extremes, Dark Sector can be considered a hidden gem of that era. Plus, it did pave the way for Warframe in terms of design and concepts. And who doesn’t love decapitating enemies with a glaive you just grew from your arm?
