Everything coming to THE FINALS in season 6

There’s still a lot about THE FINALS season six that we don’t know. Embark Studios constantly reveals more details about the upcoming content, so expect this list to change and update. There’s a lot in store on top of the new battle pass and multiple quality-of-life changes and improvements.

Weapons

The new season features three new weapons, one for each build. Lights get the ARN-220 assault rifle with a secondary magazine for faster reloads. Mediums get the CB-01 Repeater lever-action rifle that features a speed-loader. Finally, the Heavies get the M134 Minigun, which works just like you’d expect from a minigun.

Sponsors

Season six is sponsored by three companies, two of which you’re likely already familiar with. OSPUZE and ENGIMO are the returning sponsors this time around. The new sponsor in the arena is ALFA ACTA, a major player in civilian security, private contracting, and virtual combat sponsorships.

Las Vegas Stadium

Las Vegas is one of the earlier THE FINALS maps, and it got a makeover in season six. Following a similar design to Fortune Stadium, the Las Vegas Stadium now features areas sponsored by OSPUZE, ENGIMO, and ALFA ACTA.

The rework aims to refine gameplay and reduce visual clutter, especially inside buildings. You can expect cleaner routes to find entrances and exits, not getting stuck on excess objects, and a better overall traversal flow.

Power Shift maps

Power Shift expands to two new maps in season six: Bernal and Las Vegas Stadium. As always, you must fight over the platform’s control in five-vs-five matches to push it towards its destination and win the game.

Team Deathmatch

In season six, Team Deathmatch returns to THE FINALS as a permanent mode. It’ll be available in Quick Play all season long and included in the new Quick Play mode progression system. On top of that, TDM features more maps, including Fortune Stadium, Kyoto, and more.
