Free-to-play shooter Warframe is adding a new Warframe very soon. The Wukong Warframe will launch starting tomorrow, November 25, for PC, with a release scheduled for "soon" on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, developer Digital Extremes has announced. Ahead of its release, we have some details about what players can expect from it along with information on an upcoming double XP weekend event and sale.

The Wukong Warframe is inspired by the Chinese mythological figure Sun Wukong, who is also known as the Monkey King in the classic 16th century text, Journey to the West.

"Wukong is a primal warrior with the heart of a trickster," reads a line from its official description. "With his iconic Iron Staff, Wukong can turn the tide of battle, taking down swaths of enemies with his Iron Jab and Primal Fury skills. Wukong's strength is matched only by his cunning, allowing him to cheat death with Defy and to disappear from the battlefield in a cloud of mist with his Cloud Walker ability."

Some of Wukong's abilities include:

Iron Jab: Explode the Iron Staff to its true length, knowing down anything in its path.
