Ex-Battlefield devs’ new shooter — the free-to-play, squad-based The Finals — will have an open beta test from Oct. 26 to Nov. 5. It includes a free battle pass.
The Finals, the squad-based, free-to-play shooter inspired by sci-fi bloodsport narratives like Squid Game and The Running Man, will be playable on PC and console starting Oct. 26, developer Embark Studios announced Wednesday. The game from former Battlefield developers will go into open beta on that date for PlayStation 5, Windows PC (via Steam), and Xbox Series X.
The open beta will be console players’ first opportunity to go hands-on with The Finals. Embark Studios said in a news release that it will “get feedback on the console and gamepad experience” and stress test its servers.
