Arknights New Beta Test For Next Year

With Expanded Gameplay and New Characters

Arknights: Endfield is conducting another beta test in mid-January next year, expanding gameplay and character selection, as reported by Niche Gamer on December 25, 2024. Players can also choose between Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and English voiceovers and text options for this upcoming event.

Starting on December 14, 2024, players can now sign up for Arknights: Endfield’s next beta test happening next year. Developer HYPERGRYPH also announced that the new event will increase the playable characters to 15, including two Endministrators, with "new models, animations, and special effects."

Additionally, the combat and character progression were adjusted through player feedback. The upcoming beta test will feature new combo skills and a dodge mechanic. Moreover, item usage and character progression were adjusted for a better and richer gameplay experience.

The base building system will also introduce new mechanics and tutorial levels. There will be new defensive structures, and players can construct and expand new factories in different locations via outposts. The beta test also has a reworked storyline, new maps, and puzzles.

The sign-up period is currently ongoing. However, the end date for player recruitment and the start of the beta test have yet to be announced. GRYPHLINE, the game's publisher, will notify selected players via email, which will also include an installation guide.

Arknights: Endfield’s Content Creator Program Vol. 1

Alongside their initial beta test announcement on December 14, 2024, Arknights: Endfield started the recruitment for Content Creator Program Vol. 1. Selected content creators will gain access to the game’s official creator community, gain different creator perks, and attend special events.

The requirement is divided into two content categories: gameplay insights and fan creations. The former focuses on game reviews, lore discussions, livestreams, and more. Meanwhile, the latter primarily showcases memes, fan art, cosplays, and similar content.

Though there are two different categories, both follow the same set of requirements. For instance, the account must be owned by the applicant, and the content they posted must be original and relevant. They must also provide links to their past work to review their eligibility.

GRYPHLINE also reminded applicants that "meeting the requirements doesn’t guarantee selection," as they retain the final right to choose who can enter this program. The sign-up process started on December 15, 2024, and will end on December 29, 2024.
