Arknights: Endfield's initial major beta test launches today, exclusively on PC. Desktop players will gain early access to new content, characters, and gameplay mechanics. This PC-focused beta release suggests developer Gryphline is prioritizing the platform, potentially offering an olive branch to the PC gaming community.
While disappointing for mobile fans of the original Arknights, this early access period on PC may yield valuable feedback from dedicated players, shaping the game's development. Endfield, set within the Arknights universe, promises a transition to the 3D RPG genre, comparable to titles like Genshin Impact.
The beta test will introduce new characters, dodge mechanics, combo systems, maps, puzzles, dungeon content, and various other enhancements. Expect a steady flow of information following the test.
The PC-first approach is noteworthy, especially considering Arknights' mobile origins. This strategy mirrors other developers, such as NetEase with Once Human, who are expanding their reach to the PC market. While a mobile release delay isn't anticipated to be as significant as Once Human's, it's a factor to consider.
