More Playable Characters and Enhanced Combat:
The January beta expands the roster to 15 playable characters, including two Endministrators, all boasting updated models, animations, and special effects. Combat is refined based on player feedback, incorporating new combo skills and a dodge mechanic. Item usage and character progression systems have also been overhauled for a more rewarding experience.
Base Building and Storyline Upgrades:
The base building system receives a major update with new mechanics, tutorial levels, defensive structures, and the ability to construct and expand factories via outposts. The storyline has been reworked, and players can expect new maps and puzzles to explore. Language options include Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and English voiceovers and text.
Beta Test Sign-Up and Content Creator Program:
Registration for the beta test opened December 14, 2024. While the closing date for applications and the precise beta start date remain unannounced, selected participants will receive an email notification including installation instructions.
Simultaneously, Arknights: Endfield launched its Content Creator Program Vol. 1 (December 15th - 29th, 2024). This program offers selected creators access to the official community, exclusive perks, and special events. Applicants can apply under two categories: gameplay insights (reviews, lore discussions, streams, etc.) and fan creations (memes, fanart, cosplay, etc.). While meeting the requirements doesn't guarantee selection, GRYPHLINE retains the final decision-making authority.
