Alright, so big news for all you Arknights stans: Hypergryph just confirmed that Arknights: Endfield is launching in early 2026. That’s right — the super-anticipated spin-off isn’t that far off anymore.
What’s the Deal?
Light Zhong (aka Hai Mao), one of the producers from Hypergryph, straight-up said it’s coming out on PS5, PC, Android, and iOS.
No exact day yet, but “early 2026” likely means somewhere in the first few months of the year.
The confirmation came after Apple kind of slipped and showed the game during their iPhone 17 launch — so yeah, it’s legit.
What’s Going On Behind the Scenes
They’re about to kick off Beta Test II soon.
From what Hypergryph has shown, it looks like Endfield is a 3D real-time RPG with base building — so it’s not just another tower-defense game.
A PS5 gameplay demo dropped recently and revealed a bunch of prologue stuff — you even pick your “Endministrator” (yep, that’s your character name).
Pre-registration is live for all platforms, so you can lock in your spot now.
Why It’s Actually Hyped
This game could be really big: it’s not just mobile-focused, but also on PC and console.
The genre mix is super interesting — action RPG vibes plus industrial/base-building mechanics.
Hypergryph seems to be pushing for a simultaneous global release, which means no weird region delays.
Fans have been waiting for this for a while, and with Beta 2 coming, it feels like things are finally ramping up.
Things to Be Cautious About
“Early 2026” is broad. It might be Q1, or maybe even slightly later — nothing is guaranteed yet.
As usual with gacha/live-service games, what they show in beta might change by launch depending on feedback.
There’s always a chance of delays — we’ve seen that before with big titles.
