Arknights: Endfield review: sci-fi base-building can’t help this gacha stand out
In a crowded gacha landscape, Arknights: Endfield carves its place with high-tech space drills. Out Jan. 22 for Android, iOS, PlayStation 5, and Windows PC, the game blends action RPG elements with base-building mechanics, which you don’t often see in the gacha space. While other games in the genre also explore concepts like aliens or space travel, Endfield’s approach to sci-fi is more in-depth, and gets into heady topics, at points alluding to Arthur C. Clarke’s famous line: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
