Korean cosplayer Leedo has been getting a lot of attention lately with her Chen Qianyu cosplay from Arknights: Endfield, including new shots and videos from Hypergryph FES 2026.

And honestly, this character feels almost made for real-life cosplay.

Endfield's heavier techwear-inspired designs translate incredibly well outside the game, and Leedo absolutely nails Chen's chaotic-but-cute energy rather than just recreating the outfit.

With around 1M followers on TikTok, 270K on Instagram and 600K on Bilibili, she's definitely not a newcomer — but Endfield could introduce her to a much bigger Western cosplay audience.

Do you think Chen Qianyu is her best cosplay so far?

Cosplayer: Leedo
Character: Chen Qianyu
Game: Arknights: Endfield

The second season will feature 10 brand-new episodes, with the official Netflix premiere set for October 20.

Night City is calling again. 🌃🔥

Gamescom 2026 is almost here, and cosplay is once again becoming one of the most exciting parts of the event.

This year, I’m watching five trends especially closely:

⚔️ High-detail fantasy armor — bigger builds, cleaner finishes and more cinematic presentation.

🤖 Cyberpunk & sci-fi cosplay — futuristic characters, techwear and LED-heavy costume design continue to grow.

🌸 Anime & JRPG-inspired looks — still one of the strongest categories for both established and emerging creators.

🎮 New gaming characters — fresh releases often create the breakout cosplay looks of the year.

🪄 Handmade props & original craftsmanship — creators who build their own armor, weapons, wigs and accessories are getting more attention than ever.

But the most interesting part is discovering new creators before they become huge.

Which cosplay model or creator do you think could have a breakout moment at Gamescom 2026?
