“Beta Test II” offers a substantial amount of refined gameplay – between 50 and 60 hours worth – from a version of the game still under development. Based on what players shared after the first test, the developers have made major improvements to Arknights: Endfield. These include a completely reworked story with new cutscenes and animations, updated combat mechanics, a brand-new area to explore, and other enhancements.

“Beta Test II” New Features

Rebuilt Story and 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 and 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 and 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 and 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 five million followers.

The second beta test for Arknights: Endfield will be temporary – all progress will be reset when the test ends. We’ll announce the end date later. You’ll be able to play on both PC and mobile using the same account, and your data will sync between devices. The test will support English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, and Russian. Check the official website for the recommended system requirements for each platform.

Arknights: Endfield is due out for PlayStation 5, PC, iOS, and Android in early 2026.
