"The Finals: Devs Remove Frustrating Event, Add Solo Challenge with Dazzling Reward"

The Finals, a free Steam FPS game, initially saw a strong launch but has since experienced a significant decline in its player base. In an effort to attract players back, developer Embark Studios has doubled progression rewards in patch 1.7.0, making it faster to unlock battle pass rewards and career ranks. The update also includes changes to encourage more team play and address certain gameplay issues. It remains to be seen if these updates will revive the player base, but the game continues to offer an enticing experience for FPS enthusiasts.
