Arknights remains a two-track franchise: the original mobile game's merchandise line keeps adding dated, priced figures, while the spin-off Arknights: Endfield is now on Steam alongside its other platforms. Hypergryph is also moving its headquarters into a new Shanghai office tower.
Arknights coverage over the past year is split between the original game and Arknights: Endfield. The original game's presence in these stories is almost entirely merchandise: Good Smile Arts Shanghai and Good Smile Company, Myethos, APEX, Alter, and RIBOSE have all opened pre-orders on figures of W, Logos, Kal'tsit, Amiya, Wis'adel, Eyjafjalla, Hellagur, Miss Christine, Virtuosa, and Endfield's Perlica. Release dates run from December 2026 through February 2028, with prices ranging from 6,930 yen for the Amiya Tea Time figure at AmiAmi to 29,800 yen for the 1/7 scale Wis'adel.
Endfield is the more active half. Version 1.4 arrived on July 16, 2026, with PSSR support on PS5 Pro and a story extending to Chapter 2, Process VII. The Steam version was announced on August 13 with a wishlist campaign, ran a Pioneer Test in September, and launched on October 15 alongside the Danqing Du version, which adds operators Su and Mingho and the Su's Painting area. The Steam release supports cross-platform data linking, so players on the GRYPHLINE launcher carry progress over. The game is free-to-play on PS5, iOS, Android, and PC via the official website, Epic Games Store, Google Play Games, and now Steam. Hypergryph detailed the Tansei Watari update on October 6, adding Xai and Minho plus the Mortal Bonds inn event.
Hypergryph itself will move its headquarters to Building T1 of Phase 3 of Xuhui Vanke Center in Shanghai starting next year. A weekly release roundup listed the original Arknights for Windows PC on August 13, 2026, and Arknights appeared among exhibitors at BilibiliWorld 2026, which drew 400,000 visitors.
