About this game Read the full description

THE FINALS is the ultimate free-to-play FPS Game Show. Become a Contestant in a spectacular virtual competition where fast-paced team action meets unparalleled, unscripted destruction. Fight for fame, fans, and fortune across stunning Arenas where the environment is your greatest weapon.

THE WORLD'S GREATEST GAME SHOW

Compete across stunning Arenas, from Monaco to Seoul and Kyoto. With roaring crowds and dynamic commentary, the show's hosts react to the action as it unfolds, calling out your Contestant name and celebrating your biggest plays. Every match feels like a live broadcast, with you at the center of the show.

TEAM UP ACROSS MULTIPLE MODES

Experience Cashout, THE FINALS' signature 3v3v3 mode: open vaults, collect cash, and deposit it while rival teams fight to steal your payout. Jump into 5v5 Team Deathmatch for fast respawns and nonstop action, attack or defend in 8v8 Point Break, or fight for control in 5v5 Power Shift.

Prefer to go solo? Face 11 Contestants in Solo Showdown, battling through different mini-modes until one remains.

THE BEST UNSCRIPTED DESTRUCTION
Physics-driven destruction reacts to your actions, not a predetermined sequence. Blast through walls, collapse floors, and bring entire buildings down. Experience spectacular chain reactions as structures crash into neighboring buildings, all brought to life with stunning next-gen graphics. Turn the environment into your greatest weapon.

LIGHT, MEDIUM, HEAVY. YOUR PLAYSTYLE.

Choose Light for speed and stealth, Medium for versatile combat and team support, or Heavy for firepower and demolition. Each build offers unique weapons, gadgets, and abilities. Disguise yourself as a trash can, revive teammates, or charge through walls. Experiment with your loadout and outsmart your rivals.

CLIMB THE RANKS. MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF.
Test your skills in Ranked and rise through World Tour. Sign with a major Sponsor and represent their brand in the Arena. Meet your Handler, complete Challenges to earn Fans and free rewards, and uncover the stories and secrets behind the Game Show's biggest names.

ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW

Every season brings major updates, with new Arenas, weapons, gadgets, game modes, and features that keep the competition fresh and the gameplay evolving.

STEAL THE SHOW.
