  • Arknights: Endfield Update ‘At the Wake of Spring’ Set for April 17 Release

    Arknights: Endfield Update ‘At the Wake of Spring’ Set for April 17 Release

    The wait for the next chapter on Talos-II is almost over. Publisher GRYPHLINE and developer Mountain Contour have officially announced that ‘At the Wake of Spring,’ the Version 1.2 update for Arknights: Endfield, will launch on April 17, 2026.

    This major free update is poised to be a turning point for the 3D real-time strategy RPG, bringing a conclusion to the high-stakes Wuling storyline and introducing the game’s first Electric hypercarry.

    A New Face in the Roster: Zhuang Fangyi

    The headliner of this update is the arrival of Zhuang Fangyi, a 6-star Electric-attribute Operator. As the Viceroy of Wuling and Tianshi of the Hongshan Academy of Sciences, her debut has been one of the most anticipated in the community.

    • Combat Style: She utilises spectacular swordsmanship combined with lightning-based attacks.
    • Role: She is expected to serve as a powerful hypercarry, filling a significant elemental gap in the current meta.

    Storyline: The Siege of Wuling

    The narrative reaches a fever pitch in ‘At the Wake of Spring.’ The story picks up with an urgent message regarding the sudden appearance of Ardashir in the Marker Stone area—a facility vital to Wuling’s stability.

    Players will face off against the mysterious antagonist Nefarith in their first full-scale direct confrontation. This update introduces two new exploration maps within the Wuling region, including the ink-painting-inspired Marker Stone zone.

    Industrial Revolution: AIC Upgrades

    For the “Endministrators” who love the factory-building aspect of Endfield, the Automated Industry Complex (AIC) is receiving a substantial overhaul:

    • Level 3 Upgrades: Factory facilities can now be upgraded to Level 3, allowing for more complex production lines.
    • New Resources: The introduction of Liquid Cuprium and new crafting recipes.
    • Hydro-Power: Players can now use Hydro Mining Rigs to extract ore using water flow, reducing reliance on the power grid.
    • Conduit Piping: New underground waterlines can span up to 200m, streamlining resource transport across vertical terrain.

    Quality of Life & New Modes

    Beyond the story and characters, Version 1.2 focuses on smoothing out the player experience:

    • Experimental Zone: A new area dedicated to post-disaster restoration, puzzle-solving, and regional surveys.
    • Contingency Contract (CC) Mode: A fan-favourite challenge mode from the original Arknights makes its way into Endfield, offering high-difficulty rewards.
    • New Banner Type: A “Chartered Headhunting” system will feature returning characters with a separate soft-pity mechanic.

    TechMash Tip: If you’re planning to pull for Zhuang Fangyi, keep an eye on your resource reserves. With the 1.2 banner following closely after the previous Phase, the 120-pull guarantee is the safest bet for F2P players to aim for.

    Whether you’re in it for the tactical factory layouts or the intense real-time combat, April 17 is shaping up to be a massive day for Arknights: Endfield fans.

    Are you planning to add Zhuang Fangyi to your squad, or are you saving your pulls for a future banner?

  • Arknights: Endfield Version 1.1 — ‘Old Deep Water Dies, by Rising Tide It is Denied’

    Arknights: Endfield Version 1.1 — ‘Old Deep Water Dies, by Rising Tide It is Denied’

    Set your calendars: the update officially drops on March 12, 2026. This expansion, titled ‘Old Deep Water Dies, by Rising Tide It is Denied,’ isn’t just a minor patch—it’s a massive injection of story, characters, and complex new base-building mechanics.

    1. New Region: Qingbo Stockade
      The story moves East. The Endministrator is headed to the Qingbo Stockade, a new area on the edge of the Wuling region. This zone is a vertical playground, featuring a massive industrial complex and a ring-shaped lake. Narratively, things are heating up as the Stockade’s relationship with Wuling City hits a breaking point, complicated further by the arrival of the mysterious Nefarith and Ardashir.
    2. New Operators: Tangtang and Rossi
      Two heavy hitters are joining the roster to help you navigate the new threats on Talos-II:

    Tangtang (6-star Caster): A “one-girl team” specialising in AOE Cryo damage. Her Ultimate, DA CHIEF SEES YOU!, is a literal game-changer, capable of immobilising everyone—bosses included—to create massive damage windows.

    Rossi (6-star Guard): The first Operator capable of converting “Arts Infliction” into “Vulnerability.” If you run a physical-damage squad, Rossi is your new best friend for shredding enemy defences.

    1. The “Hydro-Industrialisation” System
      If you thought power management was tricky, get ready for fluid dynamics. The AIC (Automated Industrial Complex) system is expanding with a hydro-industrialisation tier:

    Hydro Mining Rigs: These allow you to mine Cuprium, a new resource. The kicker? They run on water flow rather than the electricity grid.

    Liquid Logistics: You’ll now be managing Conduits for long-distance liquid transport and Water Treatment Units to process sewage (industrial work is messy, after all).

    Forges of the Sky: The placement limit has been bumped to four units, significantly raising the ceiling for your endgame resource production.

    Quality of Life Updates (QoL)

    GRYPHLINE clearly spent the last month reading the forums. Version 1.1 brings several much-requested fixes:

    Power Line Buff: The buffer range for power lines has been extended to 20m (100m total), and connections will no longer “snap” if you get pulled into a dialogue or combat trigger.

    Zipline Navigation: You can now access the minimap and main map while riding ziplines. No more flying blind over the vertical terrain of Qingbo.

    Combat Ready: Operators now enter Protocol Spaces with maximum HP and Ultimate Energy, cutting down on tedious pre-fight prep.

    TechMash Tip: Keep an eye out for the “Gently Flows Qingbo” and “Pearl of the Pack” 7-day login events. They’ll be handing out limited-time permits to help you pull for Tangtang!

  • Talos-II awaits. We’re going Back to Endfield.

    Talos-II awaits. We’re going Back to Endfield.

    “Back to Endfield” isn’t just about exploration; it’s about mastering the integrated industrial system. Setting up power grids and production lines while fending off enemies is a serious level-up for the genre.

    The frontier of Talos-II is calling. It’s time to step back into the boots of the Endfield Industries Supervisor and reclaim the wild. The world-building, the real-time combat, and that signature Arknights aesthetic look better than ever in the “Back to Endfield” phase!

    Who else is ready to build, fight, and survive beyond the Band?

  • Arknights: Endfield: A New Chapter in Terra’s Story

    Arknights: Endfield: A New Chapter in Terra’s Story

    Fans of Arknights, get ready to dive back into the world of Terra, but not as you know it! Hypergryph, the masterminds behind the beloved tower defence gacha game, are branching out with Arknights: Endfield, a 3D real-time strategy RPG that promises a fresh perspective on the lore and a whole new gameplay experience.

    While the original Arknights captivated us with its deep strategy, compelling characters, and surprisingly dark narrative, Endfield is taking us to a new frontier. Set in the desolate and dangerous region of Talos-II, far from the established nations and conflicts of the original game, players will step into the shoes of an “Endfield Industries” Protocol Executor. Your mission? To explore, develop, and fight for survival in a hostile environment, all while uncovering the mysteries of this untamed land.

    What We Know So Far: A Glimpse into Talos-II

    The shift to a 3D real-time strategy RPG is perhaps the most exciting change. Gone are the fixed lanes of tower defence; instead, we’re presented with a world that invites exploration and tactical engagement. Early trailers showcase a stunningly rendered environment, from sprawling natural landscapes to futuristic industrial complexes, all bearing the distinctive Arknights art style.

    Gameplay appears to combine elements of base building, resource management, and squad-based combat. Players will be able to construct and upgrade facilities, manage their resources, and deploy a team of unique operators into dynamic battles. Each operator, no doubt, will come with their own distinct abilities and backstories, a hallmark of the Arknights universe.

    Familiar Faces and New Beginnings

    While Endfield promises a fresh start, eagle-eyed fans will undoubtedly spot connections to the original Arknights. The lore of Terra is vast and rich, and the prospect of exploring a new corner of it, potentially encountering new races and factions, is incredibly exciting. Will we see familiar character archetypes, or perhaps even subtle hints at the events unfolding back on the main continent? Only time will tell, but the potential for expanding the Arknights universe is immense.

    Why Arknights: Endfield is Worth Watching

    For existing Arknights fans, Endfield offers a chance to experience the world they love in a completely new way. The deeper immersion of 3D exploration and real-time combat could provide a much-needed breath of fresh air.
