Arknights Endfield AIC Factory Overhaul: Cuprium Ore, and more revealed

The first Post-Launch patch update for Arknights Endfield is right around the corner, and it's going to introduce a lot of new content, including new playable characters, new region updates, and of course new machineries for your AIC. One of the major additions for the upcoming version of Arknights Endfield is the addition of new ores and machineries which will unlock further game content for future gameplay.

The following piece will summarise the Arknights Endfield AIC Factory Update Notes, which have been officially revealed by Gryphline via the Arknights Endfield official X account.

Arknights Endfield AIC Factory Updates and more

The upcoming version of Arknights Endfield will continue our journey through the region of Wuling, where we saw major plot reveals, and we are expecting more such lore information to be revealed in future patches. More details on the upcoming patch are listed below.

New Resource discovered in Wuling

In the upcoming version of Arknights Endfield a new natural mineral will be added known as “Cuprium Ore” which looks like reddish metal and will be able to be processed with the AIC setup.

As it is a natural resource unique to the Wuling Region, it is expected to be the foundation for the factory production in that area. The raw material will be used for creating higher-tier products like Yazhen Syringes and Cuprium Components. Check out our Arknights Endfield Team Composition guide to understand which characters work best together.

Cuprium Components for future updates

The full name of the Cuprium Component is Biocore-Adaptive Single-Use Xiranite Mould, and the main resource for creating this is Cuprium itself.

The Cuprium parts might react with Xiranite which can be used to create other Cuprium Components which can be used to create new stronger gold quality gears for the characters.

With such new content, Wuling is about to get a new refreshed look. Now, all we have to do is wait for the patch to drop.

New Resource Extraction Facility in Arknights Endfield

The Arknights Endfield AIC Factory Update Notes have revealed that in the upcoming version, we will get a new AIC component: the Hydro Mining RIG.

This new AIC facility will be self-powered by using clean water, so we won't have to worry about connecting it to the nearest Relay Tower for electricity. This will make it easier to extract resources from extreme locations.

AIC Factory Updates for Arknights Endfield

One of the major improvements in the upcoming version is the addition of a new Fluid Mode to the Refining Unit. In this mode it can produce various fluid-related formulas, one such product is Cuprium which can be made into various Cuprium parts and further into Cuprium Components.

Water Treatment Unit will be added in the upcoming version of Arknights Endfield

When the Refining unit is in Fluid Mode it will produce “Sewage” during production, which will cause severe environmental damage.

To keep that in check Endfield Industries will introduce a new AIC facility and that is a Water Treatment Unit. This unit will purify the sewage and keep the water of Wuling free of pollution.

Conduit- a new facility to be introduced in the upcoming version.

Conduit is an upcoming infrastructure that will solve the issue of long-distance transport of liquids. This new infrastructure can ignore terrain and obstacles, which makes the transportation smoother. All you have to do is place and connect the Conduit Inlet and Conduit Outlet properly. The follow-up is to feed liquid into the Conduit Inlet, and it will automatically be transported to the corresponding Outlet for future use. This system will make the transportation of liquid materials a lot smoother in the future patch.
