Arknights: Endfield Version 1.1 maintenance has begun. The servers went down on March 12, 2026, at 06:00 AM (UTC+8), and the update is scheduled to wrap up at 12:00 PM (UTC+8) — a six-hour window. Once maintenance concludes, you'll be able to log in and jump straight into the new content, including the Tangtang character banner and the Qingbo Stockade area.
Quick answer: Maintenance started at 06:00 AM UTC+8 on March 12, 2026, and is expected to end at 12:00 PM UTC+8 the same day. That translates to March 11 at 10:00 PM GMT or 5:00 PM CT (UTC−5). The downtime may end early.

Maintenance compensation — 900 Oroberyls
After the servers come back online, every player will receive 900 Oroberyls as maintenance compensation. These will be delivered to your in-game mailbox automatically. Oroberyls are the game's premium currency, used primarily for pulling on character and weapon banners, so this is a welcome boost heading into the new version.
What's new in Version 1.1
The 1.1 update arrives in two phases. Phase 1 kicks off immediately after maintenance with the debut of Tangtang, a 6★ Cryo-Handcannon operator, alongside her signature weapon Brigand's Calling. Tangtang's banner runs from March 12 through March 29. Phase 2 follows on March 29 with Rossi, a 6★ Physical-Sword operator, and the Lupine Scarlet weapon banner.
Beyond new operators, Version 1.1 adds the Qingbo Stockade explorable area, a new main story chapter titled "Twas One River That Gave Us Drink," and Rossi's Operator Side Mission "The Red Knight." Several events are also staggered throughout the patch cycle.

Version 1.1 events at a glance
Several in-game events roll out across the five-week patch window. These include Supply: Exploration Day, Cleanse and Rinse, Survival Training, sign-in events for both Tangtang and Rossi, and the narrative event Quietly Flows the Spring. Survival Training is notably longer than the others, running for roughly three weeks starting in early April.
The version is estimated to last approximately five weeks, with the second Sanity Discount event window pointing toward a mid-April conclusion. An exact end date for Version 1.1 has not been officially confirmed, though community estimates place the transition to Version 1.2 around April 17, 2026.
If you're planning to pull for Tangtang right away, make sure your Oroberyl stash is ready and check your mailbox for the 900-Oroberyl compensation as soon as the servers reopen. The maintenance window is six hours at most, and there's a reasonable chance it wraps up early.
