The Finals Had a Wild First Year...

[@dakterwakz]

I remember my friend booting up the game last year and me not knowing what it was about; would never have discovered it without that. It's my favourite game now

[@ap_Oweyn]

Ong same, my friend introduced me and two others to the game and now it’s my favorite. Ironic part is he doesn’t even play it anymore.

[@agedchedar81]

This game is just so amazing. Playing the open beta with my friend and trying to unlock all the weapons while it’s dark and snowing outside is just wonderful (I live in Canada).

[@Breakbeat.]

That does sound wonderful :)

[@MatthewTheGargoyle]

This game is my favorite online shooter since Halo Reach.

[@randylahey2923]

Are you invis main?

[@yellow_airman]

Same

[@totallynotretro]

My son and I had a nearly 8 hour game session of The Finals yesterday. Best day.

[@honeymatt]

19:19 your zip line death is caused by your teammate getting hammered to death and breaking the crane. True Finals moment. Unique.

[@E-Patrik]

always great to watch your videos. Finals has grown a lot. E-sports in 2025

[@Noh4ft]

does thiss game gonna have esport events ??

[@02car]

​@@Noh4ft yes. $100k tournament was just announced

[@Cluxiu]

​@@02car fucking awesome!!

[@danielfrench6068]

There’s no wipe penalty in world tour, save those coins you brave rural badgers

[@justinstewart3248]

Since when? Is that a new update this season? There def was a wipe penalty in d season 3 WT.

[@yourfbiagent9011]

nah, they implemented that back when like, mid season 3 to pre-season 4, there's wipe penalties until today but it only takes 10% now

[@metamorphlinger]

Love this game. It truly deserves more exposure for sure. Thanks as always for making content for this awesome game

[@tomas6292]

Thank you for amazing year 1 content and we´re just getting started! And Arc Raiders coming too we´re gonna eat GOOD!

[@ZaZu2k9]

Happy birthday The Finals

[@willcreatesthings]

I love how Embark put the game into Beta for awhile, then closed it (naturally), and the crowd was simply so hungry for more, and then without warning or months-long leadup, they just dropped the full game on us and said "enjoy". Embark has been a killer studio so far with this game. Also gg to the Bishop of Winchester.

[@sealboy1211]

I remember the night it dropped. So wholesome.

[@jacobdean1454]

Exactly. Watching this game is just fun. Simple

[@dw8876]

0:58 for me the coolest memory I have is I have the cash box and the timer is at 7 seconds and i throw the cash box from kind of far away and i get it in and that moment made us win the game

[@joshnelson6548]

my favorite memory is my friends for the first time realizing you can double up a cashout and just doing that for an entire match and winning the tournament

[@user-ne9sd4ow1o]

All the chaos

[@aniruddhbambhaniya2056]

28:58 cinema. That was cinematic

[@sealboy1211]

Best fps in decades.

[@madboi1591]

Decades ? Lol please explain. So this game was better than bf2/bf3/bf4? Mw2 , bo2 , original halo ? Really I mean decades is like 20-30 years bruh . Please

[@revkevindica599]

Stopped playin for half the year cuz solo queue was a pain but I’m back in and it’s still so GD fun. Comms with randoms has been enjoyable too which is big

[@markmurphy3462]

My favourite game since release.

[@OgamerNL]

Hi Will, I think it means that the person has left the match but since it is ranked you can not join a different game until that match is done, thus giving the player chance to reconnect. If it is a normal, their name disappears completely if they leave.

[@Butterzzzz]

hey Will, worth noting that you do not lose money in world tour, idk if its been like that all season, but that is the current ruleset

[@paulweakley3440]

You should combo your mines with explosive/gas canisters if you are going to play mines (just put an explosive canister next to the mine traps you set).

[@gigathus3314]

I LOVE THE FINALS

[@gunchaman6848]

The great thing of this year and The Finals is Embark has already announced about The first official eSport Tournament of this game with the grand prize will come next year. The future of this game gonna be so BRIGHT BROS HBD to THE FINALS❤❤❤

[@szakacsattila9985]

8:57 You didn't get confused.There is SuperFrog in the Orange team also :)

[@KianFloppa]

fsr 3.1.2 upscaling update soon

[@imoteq]

Love the finals and we love will!

[@cowduck5219]

Been playing since Season 1, I cannot WAIT to get season 1 and 2 music back!!

[@tommydixon4871]

the finals be my favorite shooting game show back late season 1 ❤

[@zameel23]

Anytime I see a good archer, I call them Legolas too 😅

[@griftgfx]

The Finals movement tech is alright, but I still find Apex far more enjoyable in that department. It's what's kept me playing all these years. Still looking for something that comes close. Edit: I dunno why you think you deserve to lose just because the enemy had a DC, that wasn't YOUR fault. They did deserve the win though for overcoming it, so gg, enemy team.

[@bigjerome-wz4uo]

I love how balanced this game is, chefs kiss. (except the bow that shit makes me wanna tear my skin off)

[@kuuttisaarinen7934]

Came here for Jack, stayed here for Will

[@thisguysgaming7246]

Imma download this game the second I get home. After how bad black ops 6 is I need a relaxing fun exciting game like this

[@megacrispythought]

this game is crazy good nothing compares

[@wangonguy62]

That server was hoppin off 🐸

[@dannyf8022]

I’d like to petition to change “put in bonus” to “deposit bonus” Edit- honestly that might be the actual term but I can’t be bothered to check

[@StepanPolikanov]

25:44 their name tag disappears

[@Sweetace2211]

Probably my favorite PvP game this year. Used to be Destiny for almost a decade, then moved to Apex after I got out of that Stockholm syndrome ass relationship, now I'm ready for the Finals

[@rapid_rivers3294]

Subbed❤

[@Avalon-Sero]

SSEEEEEEEENSATIONAL!!!

[@Zulctar]

Love you Will but seriously, PUSH Q. Love you :)

[@jickolascage]

Everyone we gotta get Will to 50k! Like the vid to appease the algorithm gods

[@Chonk_plays]

Go on Will!!

[@davidwilkinson4634]

Favorite game

[@giing4746]

great game

[@haraldh.9354]

WillfromFinals ;))

[@madboi1591]

Not for everyone.

[@vyeahgra9826]

You should have coined 😅

[@TheAmazingYael]

Yeah.. about that. From going from 250k all-time peak to barely 18k daily players is crazy. It's definitely was a "wild" year. Season 1-2 finals can't not be touched, s3 and 4 were very lackluster. Season 5 looks to be the same as season 4 but slightly worse lol. The Finals needs more weapons, gadgets, abilities, and attachments throughout the seasons. Idk why it's so hard to add more? Are they lazy to add more, lazy to balance meta, scared to implement more? Definitely have the team and resources to do it. I mean they have no problem reskining outfits on a weekly basis. Sad to see people glazing the game for doing the bare minimum. Hopefully it doesn't shut dowm like Xdefiant.

[@FEIWILD688]

Cool

[@a.o.g.1900]

1st!

[@专业的Ozoneguy]

Nadie importa

[@madboi1591]

Boring....

[@WegaBoy]

Been trying to play heavy with Winch and ks23 and it can be fun but just doesn't seem viable compared to a charge n slam load out especially playing with randoms and having to carry

[@user-ne9sd4ow1o]

Facts. I tried claw for a few rounds and wasn't very useful. It's fun moving cashout, but you can do that with spear and anti grav

[@user-ne9sd4ow1o]

I'll admit charge n slam is my crutch as Heavy. 😅 I mostly use it to move quicker and take shortcuts

[@WegaBoy]

@@user-ne9sd4ow1o yeah and charge n slam can easily get you out of so many bad situations by running away to safety or eliminating multiple enemies at once.
