Warframe Audio Director and Composer George Spanos Has a Bunch of Space Ninjas Singing Sea Shanties

Ever since launching way back in 2013, Warframe has become a preferred video game among many, and a lifestyle for some. The free-to-play action title combines a number of people’s favorite things ranging from epic sci-fi space lore and all sorts of machine badassery to ninja-like abilities with both melee and ranged warfare.

In short, there’s always something new to do, see, or acquire.
