Speaking to IGN (http://au.ign.com/articles/2013/06/05/free-to-play-shooter-warframe-coming-to-ps4), Warframe creative director Steve Sinclair said Sony had approached the studio.
"Sony caught wind of [Warframe], and said, 'hey, what do you think of bringing it over to PlayStation 4?' and we were very surprised to hear that," he said.
Sinclair also sang the PS4's praises, along with Sony's new attitude towards independent studios.
"It is awesome, and I don't want to speak disparagingly about any existing or prior platforms, but we showed Warframe for the first time to our entire studio, and everyone had their jaws on the floor, how 1080p, silky smooth and beautiful it was."
Warframe will also utilise the DualShock 4's touch pad functionality, and will be supplemented with an iOS and Android app.
Warframe isn't the first free-to-play shooter to be confirmed for PS4 -Blacklight: Retribution (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/397857/blacklight-retribution-confirmed-for-ps4/) will also make the jump from PC to consoles.
