Arknights

A Tactical RPG Experience Like No Other

Welcome, Doctor.

Arknights is a free-to-play tactical tower defense mobile game developed by Chinese developer Hypergryph. Set in the dystopian, post-apocalyptic future of the planet Terra, you take on the role of the "Doctor." You command a team of "Operators" for Rhodes Island, a pharmaceutical and self-defense organization.

The world is plagued by a mysterious and deadly disease known as Oripathy, which leaves crystalline formations on its victims. While granting them powers, it also slowly kills them and makes them highly infectious. As the Doctor, you must lead Rhodes Island in the search for a cure while defending against threats like the Reunion Movement, a militant group of the Infected who seek to overthrow the world's governments.

From the Community

"KOKODAYO!"

- Kroos, 3-star Sniper

The cheerful and slightly haunting catchphrase of operator Kroos. Hearing it signals her presence on the battlefield, and it has become one of the most iconic sounds in the game.

"Apple Pie!"

- Exusiai, 6-star Sniper

Exusiai's enthusiastic skill activation line. It perfectly encapsulates her upbeat personality and has become synonymous with her rapid-fire attacks that shred through enemies.

"Schwing Schwing"

- SilverAsh's Truesilver Slash

Not a voice line, but the community's name for SilverAsh's third skill, Truesilver Slash. It's famous for its wide range and massive damage, capable of clearing entire maps and solving many difficult stages.
