About
Headlined by Typhoeus, a familiar Operator from the original Arknights, the update sends the Endministrator into the supernatural Snowy Forest. Later in the version, players can explore Suiming through a repeating time loop and recruit Operator Purrchena for free.
GRYPHLINE also confirmed recently that Arknights: Endfield is coming to Steam soon. Players can wishlist the game on the platform now.
Typhoeus Arrives from Rhodes Island
An easygoing icefield huntress with an almost obsessive curiosity about Sami legends, Typhoeus has travelled far in search of stories that might otherwise be lost to time. Her latest journey brings her to the Snowy Forest outside Yinglung Pass, where she crosses paths with the Endministrator and Chief Engineer Andre. Trapped by enchanted fog that sends travelers in circles, the group must find a way out while uncovering the forest’s secrets. As they push deeper into the forest, snow visibly accumulates on their bodies and hair before they encounter the new regional boss, Gloomwald’s Rage.
Wielding a bow as tall as she is, Typhoeus is a Nature Striker who can leap into the air, fire at multiple targets and evade ground-based attacks. She can also deploy a Barrage Array to slow enemies, combining aerial mobility, traps and concentrated Nature Burst damage.
A Nordic Folk-Electronic Soundscape
The Snowy Forest’s worldbuilding also extends to its music. Drawing on Sámi musical culture, the score for ‘Dreamscape of Wind and Snow’ reimagines Nordic traditions through elements of JRPG music, otherworldly fantasy and electronic production.
The previous ‘Homecoming’ update established this collaborative approach by inviting electronic artist Crywolf, known for his post-apocalyptic lullaby style, to compose music for a boss battle. For ‘Dreamscape of Wind and Snow,’ the team partnered with Finnish electronic musician Vilma Jää, known for her work on PlayStation 5, Epic Games Store, iOS , and Android
