The website for Arknights: Prelude to Dawn has also updated to include information such as the cast and opening theme. As mentioned earlier, ReoNa’s “Alive” will be the opening. She has also previously sang the openings for Shadows House and Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of the Underworld. The Japanese cast for the game will reprise their roles for the anime as well.
The trailer introduces the conflict between Rhodes Island and the Reunion Movement. Reunion is a violent insurrection made up of people infected with "Oripathy" a disease contracted by exposure to Originium, a major power source in-game. Rhodes Island is the Doctor and Amiya's faction, a pharmaceutical company and paramilitary organization that is researching a cure to Oripathy, and advocates for coexistence with the Infected. Characters who briefly show up include Nearl, Exusiai, and Texas. NPCs such as Mephisto and Crownslayer appear as well. Prelude to Dawn will adapt the Act 0: Hour of an Awakening story arc from the game.
Arknights: Prelude to Dawn will premiere on October 28, 2022. The Arknights game is available on mobile devices.
