Arknights: Endfield Content Creator Program Vol. 1:
Simultaneously, Arknights: Endfield launched its Content Creator Program Vol. 1 (December 15th - 29th, 2024). This program offers selected creators access to the official community, exclusive perks, and special events. Applicants can apply under two categories: Gameplay Insights (reviews, lore discussions, streams, etc.) and Fan Creations (memes, fanart, cosplay, etc.). While requirements are the same for both categories (original content, account ownership, link to past work), selection isn't guaranteed.
