# Destiny 2 Companion vs Warframe

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Destiny 2 Companion at none against Warframe's 45. Destiny 2 Companion also leads on ratings volume (172K vs 27K). Warframe's advantage is chart position (#97 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Warframe sells 44 one-off in-app purchases. Destiny 2 Companion asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Destiny 2 Companion against 4.9 for Warframe. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Destiny 2 Companion has 172K ratings behind it against 27K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 63% of Destiny 2 Companion's written reviews are positive against 71% of Warframe's.

Destiny 2 Companion ships an update every 3 weeks, Warframe fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 26, 2026.
