Arknights: Endfield

Players take the role of the Endministrator of Endfield Industries and lead a squad of Operators while exploring the planet Talos-II.

Gameplay and setting
Arknights: Endfield combines third-person real-time squad combat with exploration, character progression, regional development, and industrial automation. Players control the Endministrator and command Operators with different classes, elements, skills, and combat roles while traveling across Talos-II, completing missions, gathering resources, and fighting hostile creatures.
The AIC Factory system connects exploration directly to construction and production. Players can place facilities, transport belts, pipes, Depot Nodes, and other infrastructure, automate material processing, save factory layouts as blueprints, and expand industrial networks as new regions are developed.
Long-term progression includes Operator and weapon development, Gear Artificing, Regional Development, Weekly Routine, Umbral Monument, Delver of the Cryptic, Trial of Swordmancy, Clue Collection, Outposts, and recruitment systems such as Headhunting and Arsenal Issue. Permanent progression additions introduced after launch also allow eligible players to unlock Wuling's main mission path earlier in their account progression.
The story takes place on Talos-II, a dangerous planet where human civilization survives primarily inside the Civilization Band. As the Endministrator of Endfield Industries, the player works with Operators to investigate the planet's past, confront emerging threats, restore infrastructure, and expand humanity's presence into unexplored regions.
