THE FINALS Dev Tracker

Update 4.6.0
Mid-way through Season 4

It’s halftime in The Arena and we bid our second sponsor, HOLTOW, farewell and Thank You for the generous sponsorship this season! ISEUL-T are next in line and have some big shoes to fill following last week’s Trick or Treat event in the World Tour - but if anyone can do it, and in a grandiose fashion, it’s ISEUL-T.

Don't forget to keep spinning the wheel! Ticket drops end on the 13th but the event will stay live until the 15th, giving you time to spend your tickets and pick up a few last items in peace. Good luck!

This week we are bringing you some balance changes, reducing the effective range of both the Healing Beam and the Sword, while adjusting the Pike-556 to have a clearer ranged identity. There’s also a boatload of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements coming your way, with everything from a fix for beards clipping through headwear to some much-needed performance improvements for XBOX.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, CONTESTANTS!
This week, HOLTOW has pulled out all the stops, dimmed the lights, and turned the Arena into a place where things go bump in the night…things like Pumpkins that explode on impact, so keep your gourd up!

We hope you’ll have a ghoulishly good time destroying the Arena and smashing pumpkins to delight the fans and take out the competition!



The Arena’s this week are waiting for you. Enter, if you dare:

• Spooky Kyoto
• Spooky Horizon
• Spooky Monaco
• Spooky Seoul

HOLTOW – We know what you fear. Fear not.

Update 4.5.0
Halloween is here!
We’ve got an all-new event with 27 collectible rewards and an explosive addition to the World Tour maps starting tomorrow, sponsored by HOLTOW, who reminds you to carve your pumpkins with extreme caution!

For today…

Join the Treat Hunt Collection Event

Feeling dizzy, Contestant? It might be the copious amounts of OSPUZE-flavored Halloween candy you’ve been eating, or it could be our brand new feature - the Wheel!

The Reward Wheel is something we’ve never seen before in THE FINALS! We realized that we could not be the World's greatest game show without a flashy wheel of amazing prizes!

This Halloween, instead of adding all of these amazing cosmetics to the store, we’ve added them to the Reward Wheel. In order to spin the wheel and win something, you must have a ticket, and you can earn up to three tickets per day by completing daily contracts!

There’s an equal chanc... Read more

HOLTOW invites you to experience the frightening possibility of an Alien Invasion in week 5 of the World Tour!



This week, you’ll have to cashout while avoiding enemy teams and a beefed-up threat from above! Aliens have descended upon the arena, and this time, they mean business! The UFOs’ anti-gravity beams will now be able to pick up contestants and — as a reminder to get your HOLTOW Alien Insurance — that beam hurts! Watch out for their super-charged lasers, too!

The arena rotation for this week includes the following arenas, some with Halloween-themed decor:

• Skyway Stadium
  
  
• Vegas
  
  
• Spooky Monaco
  
  
• Spooky Seoul

Update 4.4.0
It’s getting spooky in The Arena!

With Halloween taking the spotlight next week, you might start seeing spooky changes around the Arena starting today! Dress up in your most ghoulish get-up, send shivers down enemy contestants' virtual spines as an Underworld Outcast, and get trick-or-treating before the season ends!



In this patch, you’ll find changes and fixes, including the introduction of a system to reward kills to players based on environmental kills that launch players off the map, among other things!

Check out the changes below and stay tuned for a World Tour update tomorrow that is out of this world, setting a spooky stage for things to come, and a new set of Twitch Drops to collect as we creep closer to Fright Night!

Welcome to Update 4.2!
This update comes jam-packed with changes, from a brand new event in the World Tour, ranked rewards, a brand new community event and balance changes!

First, let’s check out this week’s store update:



World Tour Event - Primetime Buff

Let’s jump into this week’s changes and start it off with a brand new event in the World Tour; “Primetime Buff”! Primetime Buff triggers when you or a teammate inserts a cash box into a cashout station, and it affects your whole team! When affected by Primetime Buff, you and your teammates receive +100 health over your typical max health (e.g. a Light player would go from a max of 150 to 250 health). Some notes about Primetime Buff;

• If taking damage, the extra health does not replenish.
• When...
