Digital Extremes Reveals That They Started To Modify Warframe To Deal With Hate Speech.
Starting last week, several game companies made statements regarding the current Black Lives Matter demonstrations. One of them was Digital Extremes which is behind Warframe. They published a declaration of support on Monday. Ever since they announced on Twitter that they have not only just have donated $25,000 to sustain Black Lives Issue but that they’ll be making changes to the game in order to combat hate speech and racism.
We have made a $25,000 donation to @Blklivesmatter in support of our previous statement.

Digital Extremes terminated this week’s community team-led streams in order to utilize the time to deal with the above modifications over-focusing primarily on Area Chat. More details can be found on the Warframe discussion forums.
