Arknights: Endfield Beta Test II Goes Live November 28

Global game publisher GRYPHLINE is excited to launch Beta Test II for Arknights: Endfield, the company's highly anticipated 3D strategy RPG set in the Arknights universe. The beta will be open on PC as well as iOS and Android tomorrow, Nov. 28 at 7:00 PM PT. The PlayStation5 beta-featuring identical content-will open starting December 12.

Beta Test II applicants can log in on the dedicated page to check their access status. Invites have also been emailed to selected players with download instructions. This closed beta includes a full progress reset at the end of the test (exact end date TBA).

Beta Test II delivers 50-60 hours worth of polished content from a work-in-progress build of the game. Informed by player feedback from the previous test, the development team has significantly overhauled Arknights: Endfield for Beta Test II, featuring a rebuilt storyline with new cutscenes and animations, revamped combat systems, a brand-new explorable region, and more.

Beta Test II New Features

  • Rebuilt Story & New Region: A fully reworked storyline with new cutscenes and dialogue animations where player choices lead to unique outcomes. Endministrators can explore Wuling, a new region that blends Eastern aesthetics with futuristic elements, combining traditional with contemporary.

  • New Characters & Updated Combat: Nine new operators, including three six-star characters: Ardelia, Last Rite, and Pogranichnik. Combat updates include combo skills, refined abilities, and updated boss encounters.

  • Factory System & Other Features: Endministrators can build and expand their Automated Industry Complex (AIC), craft items, and use new features like photo mode, teammate guidance, and crate detection.

  • Multi-Platform & Player Rewards: Enhanced controls and visuals across PC and mobile. Fans can pre-register to earn Basic HH Permits, the five-star operator Snowshine, and special rewards when the community reaches 5 million followers.

The Arknights: Endfield Beta Test II will be a limited wipe test, with all data cleared when the servers shut down at the end of the test period. An end date for Beta Test II will be announced at a later time. During the test, data can be synchronised between PC and mobile devices using the same account. The beta will support English, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Spanish, and Russian languages. A full list of recommended specifications for each platform can be found on the official website.

Set in the universe of the hit mobile game Arknights, Arknights: Endfield introduces a new immersive story and a frontier world filled with exploration, real-time combat, and base-building. Players will command teams of up to four operators, all of whom will be fighting along their side simultaneously, allowing for skill combos, elemental synergies, and other coordinated strategies. Following an initial PC technical test in 2024, the game held its first closed beta test in January 2025, offering players hands-on experience with the updated combat and AIC Factory System, where they can build facilities and an automated production line. Throughout the year, GRYPHLINE showcased the game at many of the industry’s most notable gaming events, including Anime Expo, Japan Expo, and Gamescom. It was also featured in the Apple Event on September 9, marking the first time gameplay footage had been shown for the mobile version.

Arknights: Endfield is currently in development for PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and is planned for a global launch in early 2026.
