A More Extensive Beta Test
As reported by Niche Gamer on December 25th, 2024, HYPERGRYPH's mid-January beta test will feature a larger roster of 15 playable characters, including two Endministrators, each boasting updated models, animations, and special effects. Players can select from Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and English voiceovers and text.
Registration opened December 14th, 2024. Key improvements based on player feedback include refined combat mechanics, a new dodge system, enhanced combo skills, and adjusted item usage and character progression for a richer gameplay experience.
Base Building and Story Enhancements
The base building system receives a significant overhaul, introducing new mechanics and tutorial levels. Expect new defensive structures and the ability to construct and expand factories via outposts in various locations. A revised storyline, new maps, and challenging puzzles further enhance the experience.
While registration is currently open, the closing date and beta test start date remain unannounced. Selected participants will receive an email notification from GRYPHLINE, including installation instructions. Stay tuned to our Arknights: Endfield coverage for updates!
