On December 7, 2023, The Finals was officially released. This FPS title offers players a chance to compete in an arena where the team who collects the most money, wins. Sounds cool, right?
Well, the concept is pretty unique. Players had the chance to try out the game in its open beta, which was released between October 26 and November 5. Following the conclusion of the open beta, The Finals had already gathered over 7,5 million players, according to the game's post on its official X channel.
Despite the game's early success, the player numbers on Steam have been oscillating between 30,000 and 15,000 players, according to Steam Charts, in the last six months. However, the fans have appreciated every inch of brand-new content, and The Finals is already approaching Season 5.
In a Stream to celebrate the game's first year of life, The Finals' team has brought brilliant news for competitive fans: The Finals will celebrate an esports tournament with a prize pool of $100,000.
While The Finals' community may not be the biggest, the game's esports potential is huge. It's not a game that's difficult to understand and every match has plenty of explosions and action. If you're a shooter enthusiast, you may want to give it a try!
Unfortunately, no esports organizations have invested in The Finals' esports rosters. Therefore, it's hard to guess what teams will compete in The Finals' first esports tournament.
