This free-to-play title requires substantial storage, so ensure adequate space on your device.
What Makes Endfield Different?
Unlike Arknights’ tower defense gameplay, Endfield transforms into a real-time 3D action RPG with base-building mechanics. You’ll explore the hostile moon Talos-II as the “Endministrator”, managing factory production lines while commanding operators in strategic combat.
The combo skill system lets you switch between four party members instantly, creating dynamic team strategies. Between missions, deploy your Automated Industry Complex to gather resources and expand humanity’s frontiers.
Platform Availability
Endfield launches simultaneously on PC (via Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. Cross-save functionality hasn’t been confirmed, so choose your primary platform carefully. For more mobile gaming updates, bookmark our site.

Ready your account by visiting the official website to confirm your pre-registration status. Follow Hypergryph’s social channels for potential last-minute announcements. With server capacity expectations high, logging in during off-peak hours might reduce wait times.
