Story Highlights

  • The PayPal payment channel is under temporary maintenance, and players are advised to use other available payment options.
  • The team has assured that all abnormal transactions will be properly handled.

Shortly after the release of Arknights: Endfield, GRYPHLINE announced that PayPal payments are temporarily unavailable due to maintenance and upgrades. Players quickly reported online that they were being incorrectly charged for purchases made by other users.

PayPal payment issues turns the Arknights: Endfield launch into a major blunder

The game is finally here worldwide, and many players showed their support by buying battle passes and in-game items. While I’m playing as a free-to-play user, a lot of fans started spending money, and unfortunately, that’s when problems arose, making this one of the worst launches for a gacha game so far.

Several players have reported a security issue where linking their PayPal account to the game allowed others to make unauthorized purchases. This problem gained wider attention when Twitch streamer fobm4ster shared on his livestream that someone in Japan used his PayPal to buy the battle pass before he even had the chance to.

Various players reported heavy loss but the devs are working on solutions

One Redditor shared that they lost $600 just trying to buy a battle pass, and others reported similar losses. While it’s unfortunate people lost money, I was really impressed with how quickly the team responded, putting a temporary payment system in place for maintenance and improvements.

If you’re planning to buy anything, the team suggests using a different payment method until this problem is fixed. They’ve also assured us that any transactions with issues like incorrect deliveries or unauthorized charges will be taken care of. Hopefully, everything gets sorted out soon and players who were affected receive fair compensation.
