If you're a dedicated fan of Arknights, you've likely been eagerly following the progress of Arknights: Endfield, the sequel that's starting to come into its own. As of today, the first major beta test for Arknights: Endfield has kicked off, but there's a catch—it's exclusively for PC players. While this might be a bit of a letdown for mobile enthusiasts, it's a golden opportunity for desktop gamers to explore new content, characters, and more.
Gryphline, the developers behind this promising title, seem to be extending a friendly gesture to the PC community with this early access. Set in the familiar universe of the original Arknights, Endfield is poised to venture into the realm of 3D RPGs, drawing inspiration from successful predecessors like MiHoYo's Genshin Impact.
As feedback and insights start flowing in from this beta test, we'll gain a deeper understanding of Endfield. Participants will get hands-on experience with new characters, dodge mechanics, combos, and other exciting features. Beyond these, the test will also introduce new maps, puzzles, dungeon content, and a host of other enhancements.
To the endWhile I might have been a tad dramatic about the disappointment for mobile fans, it's fascinating to see a slight shift in focus towards PC, especially when many of you are accustomed to enjoying Arknights on your mobile devices. This move mirrors strategies seen in other titles, such as NetEase's Once Human, where developers are also reaching out to the PC audience.
Although I don't anticipate a long delay for Endfield's mobile release akin to that of Once Human, it's something to keep an eye on as more details emerge about this eagerly awaited sequel.
