Ranked progression finally comes to The Finals on April 4, 2024, in the 2.3.0 update. It’s been four months since the stealth surprise release of the game in December, and the playerbase has been hankering for ranked progression, which is usually a staple of this multiplayer genre.

Besides that, there is some balance tweaking to the FAMAS, as well as to Power Shift, and some minor UI fixes.

The full patch notes for update 2.3.0 of The Finals are below.

UPDATE 2.3.0

Welcome to Update 2.3.0!
We’re excited to announce our very first Discord Quest! You can earn the Skill Issue Set by streaming your gameplay to at least one friend on Discord for 15 minutes. It’s only available on the PC version of Discord, and will work even in a private DM! You can even invite your friend to play with you! Check out the outfit below:

You can also check out our store update:

And finally, the first version of the ranked progression indicator which shows how you move up and down in rank after each ranked tournament has been added! Your feedback continues to be critical on this, so please keep it coming!

Here are the updates:

Balancing

• FAMAS

  • Increased recoil curve recovery delay from 0.68 to 0.8

  • Increased recoil recovery time from 0.8 to 1

Dev note: These changes cause automatic recoil recovery to kick in slightly later than before a player finishes firing. It helps prevent an issue where players who pressed the fire button slightly slower than other players felt they saw a very different recoil pattern for the gun

Modes

• Power Shift

  • Added SYS$HORIZON to the map pool

  • Enabled a new HUD

  • The platform will now deal damage to players that are squished underneath it, to fix the issue where you could be pushed through the ground when trapped

UI

• Fixed a bug where the revive tab and respawn coins were swapped in the scoreboard

• Corrected an issue that made the Career Circuit page appear smaller after viewing rewards on console

• Fixed an issue where Bank Rabbit Bundle couldn’t be purchased via the outfit screen

Ranked

• Added an end-of-match screen to indicate the change in rank

• Added animations to the end-of-match rank screen to show when a player is close to going up or down in rank

NOTE: We have a known issue where all players will see the incorrect ranking the first time they boot the game. You can ignore this screen, as it will only show once and will not affect your actual ranking in any way. We decided it was better to go out with this incorrect screen, than to hold off on this feature for another week1.

Those are the brief patch notes for the mid-season update 2.3.0 on April 4 for The Finals across platforms.
