Digital Extremes Announces "Record Highs" For Warframe During TennoCon

Despite the fact that Digital Extremes was unable to host an in-person event for TennoCon this year, the virtual event went over pretty well. According to a press release sent out by the company today. Not only did the event have a lot of viewers -- nearly 470k across Twitch and Steam with 2.44 million hours watched on Twitch alone -- but also in game. During the event Warframe saw a concurrent user high of 154,246, beating November 2018's previous record. That means a lot of people got to see the reveal of the Heart of Deimos expansion.

Of course, those aren't the only important numbers for TennoCon. In addition to being a way to celebrate Warframe, the event raises money for both Autism Ontario London and Alzheimer Society London and Middlesex. This year, Digital Extremes donated a total of $200,000 to the charities -- or $100,000 each. So, despite being a much different event than what players are used to, it's safe to say that this year's TennoCon was still successful.
