Arknights Endfield gameplay demo, platforms, expected release, and more details

Arknights Endfield is an exciting addition to the dystopian world of Operators and Doctors. While the well-renowned Gacha title is known for its tower-defense mechanics with the help of different characters and classes, the newer title seems to be going in another direction altogether.

Hypergryph Co., known for being the primary developers of the first Arknights game, will be taking charge of constructing a new universe.

The company released two new videos related to Arknights Endfield, where one footage showcase a cinematic teaser. The other showed a 5-minute extended open-world gameplay with different characters, mechanics, combat, and more.

Note: Some aspects of this article are speculative.

Arknights Endfield releases a gameplay demo with new characters, open-world mechanics, and more

Arknights has managed to gain a considerable following over its 4-year runtime. Millions of players have logged in to invest in fantasy/dystopian storytelling while collecting powerful playable units with the most beautiful artwork. The combat itself is pretty interesting, as it is neither easy nor challenging for the players.

Arknights Endfield, on the other hand, is taking a very different approach gameplay-wise. From open-world environments to a more RTS action-combat system, fans of the famous Arknights will find the new entry interesting in numerous ways.

Newer players excited for an Arknights on PC can rejoice, as Hyperglyph is porting their new title with HD textures while keeping desktop peripherals in mind.

Furthermore, the game is coming to Android and iOS devices. However, with the recent posts being their firsts after a year-long wait, there isn't a release date for any platform.

The community will find two new videos uploaded on Arknights Enfield's official YouTube channel. The video titled "Teaser Trailer 01" showcases new characters, the open world, and monsters in a cinematic style. More can be found below.

The second video comes in the form of a 5-minute gameplay demo showcasing the different aspects of the upcoming project. Here is a list of every significant point to take away from the Arknights Endfield gameplay demo:

• Open-world environment.
• Base building.
• Party customizations.
• Different classes for different characters.
• Traditional turn-based combat, similar to Tales games. It's a mixture of RTS and action combat.
• Factory simulator for additional resources and character materials.

Note that the above points are still speculations based on the 5-minute footage. An extended version and a deep dive video can be expected later.
