Embark Studios’ latest update for free-to-play competitive shooter THE FINALS is now live. It introduces Solo Bank It, the first limited-time mode which sees 12 players in a free-for-all fight to earn 40,000 cash and deposit it before the others.
Update 1.5.0 also offers “revamped and improved detection methods for unfair play”, meaning cheaters will be restricted with “more confidence.” The in-game store also has more items for those seeking additional options. As for balance changes, Charge N’ Slam is no longer usable while stationary or stealing an extraction. Cloaking Device’s activation cost is now two seconds, and its minimum charge time is 2.5 seconds.
Grapple Hook won’t attach to objects on carriables, and Mesh Shield’s health has dropped from 1100 to 1000. Recon Sense also has a 1.5-second activation cost while its minimum charge time drops to two seconds. If that isn’t enough, the C4, RPG and Gas Mine have seen some nerfs. Check out some of the patch notes below and full details here.
THE FINALS is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC. It crossed ten million players within two weeks of launch.
