PUBG Mobile has announced a surprising crossover collaboration with Warframe, bringing together the popular battle royale with the online multiplayer shooter.

PUBG Mobile is the mobile version of the popular Battle Royale PC game. The mobile version has a history of unique collaborations with crossovers ranging from other video game series like League of Legends to real-life stars like K-Pop group Blackpink.

Warframe is therefore a perfect match given the popularity of the series. Digital Extreme’s free-to-play multiplayer shooter was first released in 2013 and has been enjoying quiet and growing success ever since.

In Warframe, players control a Tenno, a member of an ancient race of warriors who find themselves in the middle of an intergalactic war between multiple factions. Tenno wears armored suits called Warframes as well as a variety of weapons to fight in this harsh environment. Check out IGN’s Warframe review here.

PUBG Mobile players will likely be able to acquire Warframe-specific cosmetics, but details of exactly what will be included in the crossover event have not been revealed.
