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, a shift from the series' mobile origins.
While disappointing for mobile fans, this early PC access may yield valuable feedback from dedicated players, shaping the game's development. Set within the Arknights universe, Endfield promises a 3D RPG experience reminiscent of titles like Genshin Impact.
This beta test will introduce new characters, dodge mechanics, combo systems, maps, puzzles, dungeons, and various other improvements. Information gleaned from the beta will significantly enhance our understanding of Endfield's final product.
The PC-first approach is noteworthy, especially considering the series' mobile fanbase. Similar to NetEase's Once Human, this strategy indicates a growing trend among developers to broaden their reach to the PC market. While a mobile release delay isn't anticipated to mirror Once Human's, it's a factor worth considering.
