Arknights: Endfield wins the People's Choice Award at the 2026 MGAs
All the way back in July, we opened voting for the Pocket Gamer People's Choice Awards 2026, handing it over to you to decide the best game of the year. And yesterday, we revealed who you voted for during our fancy MGA ceremony at Gamescom. With many excellent choices, Arknights: Endfield was deemed your worthy winner, with honourable mentions for Neverness to Everness and Racing Master.
Undoubtedly a worthy winner, Arknights: Endfield took a series that was chugging along nicely in the tower defence scene and blew it up by switching over to the action RPG realm. Developer Gryphline has kept it fresh with frequent updates and new characters, too, which always helps keep something in people's minds.
