Embark Studio’s FPS The Finals shocked the audience at The Game Awards 2023 with a stealth launch of the full game.
The Finals made quite a splash in 2023, the free-to-play FPS produced by Embark Studios promised a highly action-packed shootout with destructible environments, deployable abilities, and much more. The game also deployed class-based combat, with 3 different playable classes that operate in very different ways.
The title saw several closed and open betas in the latter months of 2023, with the game capable of hosting multiplayer matches. Players could partake in various firefights, grabbing cash cubes and dumping them at objectives to win.
