In the free competitive shooting game market dominated by major manufacturers such as “Apex Legends” and “The Final Hour”, “THE FINALS”, a new 3-player multi-style shooting game, has become a rare new work in recent years that has hundreds of thousands of players online at the same time. The novel shooting experience continues to attract the FPS player community.
Before the initial publicity of “THE FINALS”, DICE members inherited the spirit of “Battlefield” to create a shooting style in which buildings can be destroyed, and the vault competition combined with fast-paced parkour attracted attention. The game’s simultaneous online peak has reached a new high of 242,399.
In fact, the game is not just about destroying buildings, but also uses novel prop combinations to create many new tricks. As the game goes on sale, more and more players have begun to share some interesting ways to play with equipment and props.

Yes, the slime bomb that creates a bubble bunker is not only used for cover, but can also be used to block the slide rail interface and make the enemy fall to death.
In addition, the special skills of the medium configuration can cast automatic turrets. The fixed defensive equipment originally designed to be placed on the ground has been turned into a self-propelled turret by players.
This is precisely because “THE FINALS” can pick up surrounding environmental objects from a distance, so some players set up turrets on chairs, then pick up the chairs and chase enemy players while walking.
Of course, picking up props is the key feature of “THE FINALS”. The focus of this game is actually to use the explosives or gas barrels set up on the field to cause destruction.
This throwing method has now become a surprise attack method for players in conflict battles. It is completely different from other works that rely solely on gun shooting to determine the outcome. Many players also get fun from it.

In addition, the light configuration in the game seems to be the most popular character for many Japanese players, because this configuration has high mobility, its special skills can be switched to a stealth state, and it can also use dart throwing ninja play.
Of course, melee attacks are quite risky for light configurations with extremely low health, but the first-mover advantage brought by the high-speed sprinting or invisibility of light characters is still more suitable for highly skilled players.
