The wait is finally over. Arknights: Endfield has officially arrived on PC, mobile, and PS5, bringing Hypergryph's signature strategic depth to a massive 3D real-time world. As the game enters its first full weekend following the January 22, 2026 global launch, servers are flooding with Endministrators eager to build their industrial empires on Talos-II. Whether you are struggling with frame drops on mobile, looking to secure the best 6-star operator, or trying to sync your progress across devices, we have compiled the ultimate launch weekend guide to get you up to speed.

Arknights Endfield PC Settings for Maximum FPS

With a recommended GPU of an RTX 2060, Arknights: Endfield is surprisingly well-optimized, but its dense factory simulations can tax even high-end rigs once your base expands. To maintain a buttery-smooth 60 FPS during chaotic combat, we recommend tweaking these specific Arknights Endfield PC settings:

  • Shadow Quality: Set to Medium. High shadows are the biggest performance hog and offer diminishing visual returns during fast-paced battles.
  • Volumetric Fog: Turn Low or Off. While atmospheric, this setting eats VRAM heavily in open-world areas.
  • Anti-Aliasing: Use TAA but ensure "Motion Blur" is disabled to prevent visual smearing during camera pans.
  • Vegetation Density: Keep this at Medium if you are exploring dense forest biomes to prevent stuttering.

Note: Ensure you have at least 45GB of free space after installation for the game's unpacking process, or you may encounter crash-to-desktop errors during the initial boot.

Mobile Performance: Balancing Battery and Visuals

For players on the go, Arknights Endfield mobile performance varies significantly between devices. If you are running a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or equivalent, you can push for High settings, but we strongly advise capping the frame rate at 45 FPS or 30 FPS for extended sessions to avoid thermal throttling. For older devices (Snapdragon 855/Kirin 990), stick to the "Balanced" preset and turn off Bloom and Post-Processing completely. These two settings drain battery faster than any other graphical option.

Arknights Endfield Reroll Guide & Best Characters

Unlike its tower-defense predecessor, rerolling in Endfield is a commitment. The tutorial takes approximately 30-40 minutes to clear before you unlock the gacha system. However, if you are determined to start with the meta, here is your Arknights Endfield reroll guide:

The Target: Laevatain. As the featured limited character for the launch banner, Laevatain is an absolute powerhouse S-Tier DPS unit who specializes in Heat damage and crowd control. Securing her early will trivialize much of the early-game combat.

Other Top Tier Units to Keep

  • Ardelia: A top-tier support unit. Note that while she is S-Tier, all players receive a copy of her for free via launch events, so don't burn rerolls specifically for her unless you want duplicates (Potentials).
  • Pogranichnik: An excellent tank/defender who shines in hard content.
  • Lifeng: A strong melee burst damage dealer.

Cross-Save Guide: Linking PC, Mobile, and PS5

One of the game's strongest features is its seamless cross-play, but the Arknights Endfield cross-save guide comes with a critical warning for PlayStation users. Your progress is tied to your Gryphline Account.

For PC and Mobile: Simply log in with the same Gryphline email/password. You can swap devices instantly without losing progress.

For PS5 Users: You must link your PSN account to your Gryphline account before you start playing on the console. If you start a game on PS5 without linking first, a "ghost" account is created, and you cannot merge it with your PC/Mobile progress later. Go to Settings > Account > User Center on the main menu to verify your link status immediately.
