The latest entry in the hugely popular Arknights universe is out now, expanding the IP beyond mobile and introducing cross platform progression. Arknights: Endfield – a free-to-play RPG that builds on the strategic depth of 2019’s Arknights – made an impact with its presence at Japan Expo, Anime Expo and gamescom last year, and had over 35 million sign-ups in its pre-registration phase.
To celebrate the release on PlayStation 5, PC and mobile, publisher GRYPHLINE has announced an array of rewards players can claim, including sign-in bonuses and milestone rewards equivalent to at least 135 pulls across different banners.
The game introduces a 3D world built around exploration, real-time combat and base-building objectives to the original 2D offering, with a new frontier storyline driving the action. Players control squads of up to four characters (Operators), combining their skills, elemental abilities and coordinated tactics in a series of fast-paced enemy encounters.
At the heart of the narrative is the player-character the Endministrator, or Endmin, a legendary guardian who has been roused from a decade-long hibernation. The Endmin has been tasked with protecting the inhabitants of Talos II from catastrophic threats, and, with the assistance of Endfield Industries, has utilised their mastery of advanced energy transmission and the planet’s most valuable resource: an element called Originium. Together, they have developed a variety of industrial technologies including the Automated Industrial Complex (AIC), a backbone of production networks and power grids stretching across the wilderness, in order to forge a future and expand the Civilization Band across Talos II.
But as well as driving innovation and progress, the Civilization Band also faces threats posed by raider clans, hostile entities the Aggeloi, and The Blight – a mysterious dimensional anomaly that infects and taints any matter it comes into contact with.
Arknights: Endfield’s expansion beyond mobile means that exploration, AIC mastery, squad combat and management of Endfield Industries’ orbital HQ can all be enjoyed with native 120 FPS support, realistic snow-stepping, environmental puddle reflections and more. Players can also toggle NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and Frame Generation independently, to further bring the expansive landscapes of Talos II to life.
In addition, there is plug-and-play support on both mobile and PC for DualSense, DualShock and Xbox controllers with haptic feedback, providing a premium tactile as well as visual experience.
Arknights: Endfield is available now on PlayStation5, PC via the official launcher and Epic Games Store, and mobile devices via Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Check out our review so far for a comprehensive breakdown of the game’s mechanics and the opening hours of gameplay.
