Embark Studios has launched the Closed Beta phase for its free-to-play, combat-centered game, THE FINALS. And, although this is a multiplayer game, the game will take advantage of Ray Tracing Global Illumination. Furthermore, it supports NVIDIA’s latest AI tech, DLSS 3.
Below you can find a video from “2kliksphilip”, in which he provides comparisons between RT On and RT Off. As we can clearly see, the game greatly benefits from ray-traced Global Illumination, especially in shadowy areas.
2kliksphilip has also showcased the game’s advanced destruction system. From what we can see, THE FINALS will allow you to destroy whole buildings. However, there will be numerous objects that will be indestructible. So don’t expect complete destruction similar to what we saw in Teardown. Still, this is better than what most triple-A games currently offer.
In THE FINALS, players will fight alongside their teammates in virtual arenas that you can alter, exploit, and even destroy. Players can build their own playstyle in this first-person shooter to win escalating tournaments and lasting fame.
Enjoy!

Yeah it’s like the base thing is good, but the extra things make it bad.
This was beautiful Admin. Thank you for your reflections.
1st UE5 game on the market that isn’t Fortnite also.
How interesting that he was able to destroy a cathedral at the end of the video. I’d like to see him or others attempt to do the same to a mosque, temple, or *gasp* a synagogue in the game. But let me guess, the developers don’t have the balls to make maps in countries where these exist (or if they do, there won’t be these types of buildings accessible) because they know exactly what will happen to them if they do.
*sigh* the absolute state of Christianity…
Why does this game have so much yellow in it? Why do the characters need to look like crap?
Having a cohesive artstyle actually takes time and effort and isn’t compatible with silly sh**ty skins for narcissistic microtransaction whales.
Yea it’s got potential but they have to make the characters look pathetic and out of shape to appease the modern scum.
