THE FINALS

Fame and fortune await – if you don’t get flattened first

THE FINALS

Our gun is trained on the doorway and our surviving teammate is skulking in the corner with a dagger, ready for any intruder that might try to scupper our chances in this virtual gameshow. Suddenly, the walls cave in, the ceiling collapses, and gunfire, explosions and expanding blobs of goo start to fill the room. We’ve made an elementary mistake, which is to treat The Finals like a conventional shooter.

Amplified destruction is just one of the twists introduced by this free-to-play first-person shooter from Embark Studios, the company founded in 2018 by veterans of DICE and the Battlefield series. “Sometimes it feels as if the game industry has been reskinning the same game over and over again,” the studio’s chief content officer, Rob Runesson, notes. “We actually said: ‘There must be things here nobody has tried’.” Where most shooters glue our eyes to the iron sights, The Finals has us scouring the world for opportunities to traverse, transform and weaponise it.

This dovetails with another of the game’s pillars: player freedom, expressed in

Possessor(s)

After three rounds of layoffs this year and Hyper Light Breaker’s curtailed development in early access, a lot seems to rest for Heart Machine on this plucky Metroidvania side project. The studio has an obvious knack for conjuring up fascinating fantasy worlds, but since its compact debut, Hyper Light Drifter, it’s been less obvious whether it can manage projects of a larger scale. And perhaps, on that count, even the modest Possessor(s) isn’t quite modest enough — it feels as much a victim of the company’s production woes as a showcase for its creative talent.

Street Fighter 6

Superstition might suggest that even numbers are more auspicious for the series, but it's fairer to say that Capcom learned from the mistakes of Street Fighter V and launched a fighting game that doesn't just feel like a full package, but one that has foundations to build on in future updates.

The Outer Worlds 2

There's always a risk in imitating something regarded as a classic: if it offers a template for success, it could just as easily invite unfavourable comparison. Obsidian Entertainment's Fallout: New Vegas has gained that reputation in the 15 years since its release, and while the original The Outer Worlds, led by Fallout creators Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, referenced that series without aping it, the sequel zeroes in on New Vegas as its direct source of inspiration. This explains both why The Outer Worlds 2 is a success and why it can't quite stand tall as a creation with its own identity.
