Embark Studios’ Unique Shooter, The Finals, Attracts Millions of Players
The development team at Embark Studios, known for their work on the Battlefield series, has brought a fresh perspective to the shooter genre with their new game, The Finals. The creative director, Gustav Tilleby, revealed in an interview with Game Informer that the team initially had no intention to create a shooter.
Tilleby explained, “In the beginning, we didn’t (initially) set out to make a shooter. I don’t think it’s something that’s really said out loud; it’s something that everyone thinks, like, ‘No, we shouldn’t do that,’ because we’ve done it before.” However, after pitching several ideas, including what he called ‘Boring Idea One’ and ‘Boring Idea One’ Two, which were shooters, the team decided to explore the possibility of creating a unique shooter that stood out in the genre.
The Finals has certainly achieved that goal, attracting millions of players during the open beta phase and continuing to garner interest after its release. The game’s success has been a welcome change in the crowded shooter market, and it has the potential to have a lasting impact on the genre.
With a team of experienced developers behind it, The Finals has proven to be a refreshing addition to the shooter genre, and its unique approach has resonated with players. It will be interesting to see how the game continues to evolve and whether it will leave a lasting impression on the gaming community.
