Arknights: Endfield is lighter on your drive than most open-world gacha releases — but the installer briefly asks for more space than the final install actually uses, which trips up players who cut it close on a smaller SSD.
Minimum specs
Windows 10/11 64-bit, an Intel Core i5-9400F or equivalent, 16GB of RAM, a GTX 1060, and DirectX 11.1 — targeting 1080p at 30fps on low settings.
Recommended specs
For a smoother experience, Hypergryph recommends an Intel Core i7-10700K and an RTX 2060 — RAM stays at 16GB even at this tier, which is lighter than most of its genre peers.
The storage number that actually matters
The finished install is around 50GB, but budget closer to 90GB free during setup — the installer needs roughly 40GB of temporary space to unpack files before cleaning up. If you're installing on a nearly-full drive, that gap is the number to check against, not the final install size.
Our take
This is one of the more modest PC footprints in the genre right now: a GTX 1060 clears the minimum bar, and even the recommended tier doesn't ask for more than 16GB of RAM. Just make sure your drive has the full ~90GB free before you start the download, not just the ~50GB the finished game will occupy.
