Arknights: Endfield Announced for Early 2026 Release

Global game publisher GRYPHLINE has announced an early 2026 launch window for Arknights: Endfield, its upcoming real-time 3D RPG with strategic gameplay elements, which is in development for PlayStation®5, PC, and mobile devices. The release timing was revealed following the Apple Event on September 9, where it was showcased on the newly announced iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, while highlighting the improved gaming performance of the next-generation A19 Pro chip. The occasion also marked the first time gameplay footage had been shown for the mobile version of the game.

Apple stated that, when paired with the Apple-designed vapor chamber, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max with the A19 Pro chip would deliver up to 40 percent better sustained performance than the previous generation - ideal for gaming, video editing, and running large local language models. The 6-core CPU is the fastest in any smartphone, and the 6-core GPU architecture includes Neural Accelerators built into each GPU core, a larger cache, and more memory than the A18 Pro. Apple emphasized that the GPU, working in tandem with the new 16-core Neural Engine, enables AAA gaming titles like Arknights: Endfield to run with stunning graphics and hardware-accelerated ray tracing at higher frame rates.

Published by GRYPHLINE in North America and Europe, Arknights: Endfield is set in the world of the wildly successful mobile tower defense RPG hybrid Arknights, which has received 100M downloads since its 2020 launch.
