step into the studio revealed its first game, finalsa very confusing looking first-person shooter.
Unveiled earlier this week, Finals is a free-to-play squad-based multiplayer shooter inspired by films such as last year’s hit The Squid Game and dystopian classic The Runner. The first trailer is impressive, with what appears to be a fully destructible environment, and enemies that burst into coins when you take them down. And you can already sign up for the game’s playtest, though the closed alpha only runs until tomorrow, October 3rd.
According to Gustav Tilleby, the studio’s creative director, Grand Finals is “a hero builder, not a hero shooter,” and said the team wanted to “build a game that provides players with meaningful interactions, changes, and use of their Tools. The world. So, it’s a shooter; it’s a game where aim and shoot is important. But it’s also a game where the player can take advantage of the environment, adapt to changes in the environment” (thanks Polygon).

The standard game consists of four teams of three each, although Tilleby points out that it’s not a battle royale. The map is also based on “iconic real-world locations” such as the Monaco Hotel in Monte Carlo, so we hope Embark doesn’t decide to use any culturally significant locations to create confusion. The map will also have different time and weather effects to make every match feel fresh.
Tilleby also explained that all the destruction is running on the game’s servers, not on the hardware, which is where the entire building is likely to collapse.
If you’ve heard the name Embark Studios before and are saying to yourself “wait, aren’t they making other games”, you’re right because it was created by a former battlefield
