Key Features:
- Truly Dynamic and Destructible Environments — Contestants fight it out in virtual playgrounds based on some of the world’s most iconic places. The arenas are immersive and fully destructible, powered by Embark’s new server-side destruction & movement system that ensures every player experiences the same impact to the world at the same time – whether it’s a piece of furniture blown apart or a whole building collapsing.
- Maximum Player Expression — Deep visual and gameplay customization allows players to build their own unique contestant. From stealthy ninjas defeating opponents with a katana, to cowboys tanking with rocket launchers, every contestant can control who they are and how they play.
- Rely on Your Instincts — Why impose limits to your imagination? In The Finals, if you think something might work, it probably will. Contestants need to rely on their intuition, use the environment to their advantage, and make full use of their bespoke arsenals and abilities to defeat their rivals and complete objectives.
- The World’s Biggest Stage — All of this beautiful, brutal chaos is wrapped up into an over-the-top virtual game show, centered on a high-stakes tournament with eliminations between every high-tempo round.
