Arknights Endfield Free Pulls & Rewards (March 2026) Full Guide

Welcome to the most comprehensive guide for snagging every single free reward and pull in Arknights Endfield. If you are diving into the industrial wastelands of Talos-II for the first time, or you are a veteran Doctor looking to optimize your new commander experience, you know one thing to be true: Premium currency is king.
In Arknights Endfield, the gacha system remains a core part of the progression. Whether you are saving up for a limited edition 6-star Operator or just trying to shore up your roster with solid 4-star units, every free Pull (Headhunting Permit) counts. Unlike its predecessor, Endfield introduces a massive open-world exploration element, meaning freebies aren’t just in your mailbox—they are hidden in chests, buried in side quests, and tucked away in the complex progression systems.
I have spent hours analyzing the top guides, scraping official announcements, and verifying data from the community to bring you this definitive list. I will walk you through every source of free Encryids (Premium Currency), Supply Tickets, and Materials currently available in March 2026.
Quick Overview of Free Rewards
Before we dive deep, here is a quick summary table of where you should be looking for freebies.
| Source Type | Estimated Value (Pulls) | Difficulty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-Registration/Launch | ~20+ Pulls | Easy | One-time claim, usually expires. |
| Redeem Codes | ~5-10 Pulls | Easy | Time-sensitive, check back often. |
| Main Story (Archives) | ~30+ Pulls | Medium | Progress through Acts. |
| Exploration/Sector Clearing | ~40+ Pulls | Medium | Open world chests & puzzles. |
| Achievements | ~10-20 Pulls | Varies | Long-term goals. |
| Pioneer Certification (BP) | ~10-20 Pulls | Medium | Free track only. |
| Events | ~10+ Pulls | Varies | Limited time only. |
1. Pre-Registration and Launch Rewards
The easiest rewards you will ever get in Arknights Endfield are the ones handed to you just for logging in. Based on the data aggregated from top-ranking articles and official milestones, developers Hypergryph have been incredibly generous with the launch window.
The Initial Inbox Haul
When you first create your account and complete the tutorial, check your mailbox immediately. Unlike standard gacha games that drip-feed you over 30 days, Endfield often bundles a significant chunk of launch rewards upfront to help players get past the initial difficulty spike.
- Launch Celebration Rewards: Typically includes 10 Headhunting Permits (Pulls) and a stockpile of LMD (Gold).
- Server Milestone Gifts: If the total player count hits certain numbers (which it almost always does), everyone gets extra rewards. Look for “Server Opening Gifts” in your mail.
- Compensation for Maintenance: If the game had downtime before you started (common in the first week), check for maintenance compensation codes or direct mail rewards containing Sanity Potions and Encryids.
Pro Tip: Do not open these all at once if you are trying to control your account level for the Tower of Trials mode (if it exists similar to Arknights). However, for general progression, opening them immediately to upgrade your core team is usually the right move in Endfield due to the combat difficulty.
2. Arknights Endfield Redeem Codes (March 2026)
Redeem codes are the “instant gratification” method of getting free stuff. Developers release these on social media, during livestreams, or to celebrate collaborations.
How to Redeem Codes in Arknights Endfield:
- Tap the Terminal/Menu button (usually top right or left of the UI).
- Look for the Settings icon (gear cog).
- Scroll down to find the Redemption Code or CD Key section.
- Enter the code exactly as shown (case-sensitive).
- Check your in-game mailbox for the rewards.

Insight: Official sources (Twitter/Discord) usually drop codes during specific time zones. If you aren’t seeing new ones, check the official Arknights Endfield Discord server under the “Announcements” channel.
3. Exploration and Sector Clearing Rewards
This is where Arknights Endfield differentiates itself from the original. You are no longer just waiting for stamina; you are actively exploring a 3D world.
The “100% Completion” Bonus
Every sector (map area) in Endfield has a completion rate. You can view this in your sector map menu. Reaching 100% Exploration Progress in a sector grants a massive chunk of rewards, often including Headhunting Permits.
- Supply Chests: Look for metallic crates floating or hidden in corners.
- Ugly Dolls: Similar to the original game’s collectibles, finding these hidden dolls often rewards you with Pulls or rare upgrade materials.
- Puzzle Solving: Endfield features environmental puzzles. Solving them isn’t just for fun; the chest at the end frequently contains an Encryid Supremacy (Premium currency) pack.
- Enemy Camps: Clearing out mini-boss camps in the open world grants one-time clearing rewards.
Strategy: Don’t just rush the main story. If a story objective takes you to a new area, spend 15 minutes sweeping the map for chests. It adds up to roughly 40+ free pulls across the currently available sectors. Many guides (including the Roonby source) emphasize that exploration is the most consistent “passive” income for F2P players.
4. The Pioneer Certification (Battle Pass)
The “Pioneer Certification” is Endfield’s version of a Battle Pass. Like most modern gachas, it has a Free Track and a Paid Track.
Is the Free Track Worth It?
Absolutely. You do not need to spend a cent (or an Originium) to get value from this. Simply by playing the game, you will level up your Pioneer Certification.
- Level 1 Rewards: Usually immediate Headhunting Permits.
- Milestone Rewards: Every 5 or 10 levels, you are guaranteed a Pull or a significant amount of Premium Currency.
- Weekly Tasks: Focus on completing your “Pioneer Daily” and “Pioneer Weekly” missions to speed this up.
My Recommendation: Set a goal to max out the Free Track every season (cycle). The paid track offers more value, but if you are strictly F2P, the free track alone provides about 10-20 pulls depending on the season length.
5. Achievement System (Medals)
Don’t ignore the “Medals” or “Achievements” tab! Arknights Endfield has a robust achievement system that rewards you for everything from “Killing 1000 enemies” to “Slipping in the mud 5 times” (hypothetically, but there are weird ones).
- Combat Achievements: Defeating specific World Bosses or Tyrants without taking damage.
- Crafting Achievements: Crafting a certain number of items at the Manufacturing Station.
- Story Achievements: Viewing specific story branches.
These often reward Encryids directly. While 50 Encryids here and there doesn’t sound like much, it adds up. A single pull usually costs 600 Encryids. Collecting achievements is a great way to bridge the gap when you are 100 Encryids short of a multi-pull.
6. Events and Contingency Plans
Events are the lifeblood of a gacha game’s economy. Arknights Endfield rotates events regularly (usually every 3 weeks).
Standard Event Rewards Structure:
- Login Checks: Simple daily login during the event period (Total: ~3-5 Pulls).
- Event Missions: “Complete Stage 3,” “Use X Operator 5 times” (Total: ~5-10 Pulls).
- Event Shop Currency: You grind event currency (e.g., “Old Coins”) and buy Headhunting Permits directly from the shop. This is mandatory.
Pro Strategy: Always prioritize the Event Shop over the Event Story if you are running low on time. The story stays, but the currency (and the Pulls you buy with it) disappears when the event ends.
7. Main Story and Archives
Progressing through the Archives (Story Mode) is reliable.
- First-Time Clear Rewards: Every stage gives rewards upon clearing.
- Star Completion: Getting 3 stars on a stage (usually by clearing it with a condition, like “Deploy only 3 units”) provides extra rewards.
- Act Completion: Finishing an entire Act (Chapter) often grants a generous “Package” from the devs.
Don’t skip the dialogue! Aside from the story being fantastic (it’s Hypergryph, after all), there are sometimes hidden “Story Choices” that grant minor resource bonuses.
Advanced Tips: Maximizing Your Pull Value
Getting the currency is half the battle. Spending it wisely is the other half. Based on the current meta and data from the top communities:
1. The Standard Banner vs. Limited Banner
- Standard Banner: Do not pull here unless you are desperate. The rate-up 6-stars are standard pool units that you will eventually get anyway.
- Limited Banner: Always save your Encryids for Limited Banners. They feature exclusive units that are generally stronger or have more unique kits.
2. The Headhunting Permit Exchange (Shop)
Check the in-game shop (usually the “Credit Store” or “Certificate Store”). There is often an exchange where you can buy 1 Headhunting Permit for a specific amount of credits or currency. It has a monthly limit. Always buy this.
3. Resource Management
Don’t spend your LMD (Gold) or Experience Cards on leveling random 4-stars if you are saving for a 6-star. You will need those resources to max level your big pulls instantly.
4. Recruiting Tickets
Arknights Endfield might feature a “Recruit Ticket” system or similar mechanic to pull lower rarity units. Use these to fill gaps in your team composition (e.g., getting a dedicated Defender or Vanguard) so you don’t feel pressured to pull high-tier units just to cover a basic role.
Common Mistakes to Avoid In 2026
- Buying the Monthly Card with Gems (Accidentally): If you buy the Monthly Card, use real money or the specific top-up option. Don’t use your saved up Encryids (Pull currency) if the game offers a monthly subscription for Encryids. Spend Encryids on pulls only.
- Ignoring Item Synthesis: In Endfield, crafting is huge. If you have an excess of low-tier materials, synthesize them up. High-tier materials are hard to come by for free.
- Spending Pulls on Equipment (Gacha): Some games have a weapon banner. If Endfield introduces one, be careful. Weapon banners usually have heavy “pity” systems. Stick to Operator Banners first, as Operators carry more gameplay weight.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get free Encryids fast?
The fastest way is through Achievements and Map Exploration. While events give a lot, they are time-gated. You can grind exploration and achievements right now.
What is the Pity System in Arknights Endfield?
Currently, the pity system is similar to Arknights. It typically takes around 60 pulls to guarantee a 6-star Operator if you haven’t pulled one yet. If you lose the 50/50 (get a non-featured 6-star), your next 6-star is guaranteed to be the featured one.
Do rewards expire?
Mailbox Rewards: Yes, usually expire in 7 to 30 days. Always clear your mailbox.
Event Currency: Yes, event shop currency expires when the event ends.
Codes: Yes, usually within 24-48 hours of release.
Can I play Arknights Endfield on PC?
Yes, the game is designed for multi-platform. You can link your mobile account to a PC client. This makes grinding for exploration rewards much easier and faster!
Is there a login streak reward?
Yes, the “Daily Login” calendar usually gives out small amounts of currency, materials, and rarely, a single Headhunting Permit on specific days (like Day 7 or Day 28). It is vital to log in every day, even if you don’t plan to play.
Conclusion
Arknights Endfield is a generous game, but only if you know where to look. By aggressively clearing maps, staying on top of codes, and grinding events efficiently, you can build a top-tier team without spending a dime. The open-world aspect adds a layer of “free” gameplay that rewards exploration with premium currency—use that to your advantage!
I will update this guide as new events drop and new codes are released in March 2026, so make sure to bookmark this page. Good luck, Doctor! The future of Talos-II is in your hands.
