The Latest Updates for The Finals Season 2
The latest patch for The Finals season two has just been released, bringing a host of new features and improvements to the game. Embark Studios has shared the patch notes for version 2.1.0, outlining changes to maps, introducing a new ban progression system, and highlighting the new Powershift game mode.
One of the major additions in this update is the ability to select maps in private matches, giving players more control over their gameplay experience. Additionally, Powershift will be getting new maps in the future, promising fresh settings for players to explore.
Several changes have been made to the game mode itself, including fixes for clipping jump pads and the addition of new traversal options to improve the overall gameplay experience.
While this update is not focused on major technical changes, there are some adjustments to weapons and gadgets. For example, the SA1216 has seen a decrease in fire rate and damage per pellet.
