Embark Studios is opening The Finals up to the general public today when it kicks off the team-based first-person shooter’s first cross-platform open beta test. The playtest will run until November 5th on PC via Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox with a brand-new map, game mode, and battle pass.

“The Open Beta introduces the brand new Skyway Stadium arena to the map rotation, along with an all-new game mode — Bank-It,” Embark announced. “Additionally, the beta includes a free BattlePass with 16 exclusive, permanent rewards that players can unlock and keep for launch.”

“The goal of the Open Beta is to validate improvements and changes made from earlier testing on PC, stress-test the game’s server and backend infrastructure at scale, ensure the team is capable to quickly patch and update the game across platforms, and get feedback on the console and gamepad experience,” the studio added.

“Join THE FINALS, the world-famous, free-to-play, combat-centered game show! Fight alongside your teammates in virtual arenas that you can alter, exploit, and even destroy. Build your own playstyle in this first-person shooter to win escalating tournaments and lasting fame.”

Beta sign-ups are still open on all available platforms if you want to check out the game for yourself.
