Arknights: Endfield's initial major beta test is now live, exclusively on PC. This early access grants desktop players a first look at new content, characters, and gameplay mechanics.

The PC-focused beta test might disappoint mobile Arknights fans, but it's a strategic move by developer Gryphline. This early access period on PC will likely generate valuable feedback from dedicated players, shaping the game's future development.

Endfield, set within the Arknights universe, is a 3D RPG, drawing inspiration from titles like Genshin Impact. The beta test will introduce new characters, dodge mechanics, combo systems, maps, puzzles, dungeons, and various other improvements.

While the initial PC focus might seem surprising given Arknights' mobile origins, it reflects a growing trend among developers to prioritize PC releases, mirroring the approach seen with NetEase's Once Human. Although a mobile release delay isn't anticipated to be as extensive as Once Human's, it's a factor to consider.
