About Arknights: Endfield
Arknights: Endfield is Hypergryph’s action-RPG spin-off of the tower-defense series Arknights, developed by subsidiary studio Mountain Contour and published globally by Gryphline (Hypergryph publishes it directly in China). It released on January 22, 2026, for PC (Windows), PlayStation 5, iOS and Android.
Unlike the original Arknights, Endfield is a real-time action game: players control a squad of Operators directly, switching between them mid-fight and combining their skills, rather than placing them on a map to fight automatically. Alongside combat, players manage the Automated Industry Complex (AIC) — a base-building and factory-automation layer where resource extraction and production keep running even while offline. The game is free-to-play with gacha-style Operator acquisition and continues to receive regular content updates, including new Operators, regions and story arcs.
