Last December, Embark Studios unexpectedly released THE FINALS, a free-to-play first-person shooter game on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. It quickly amassed huge group of players and generally received positive reviews from critics, earning 80 out of 100 points on Metacritic and a 75% positive review rating on Steam.
However, despite the promising start, Nexon's most recent financial update revealed that THE FINALS isn't meeting its expected performance benchmarks. The publisher acknowledged:
“The launch of Season 2 in March created a short-lived increase in player metrics but delivered lower-than-expected retention and revenue. The Embark team is working with our Korea-based Live Operations team to understand and address the key issues.”
