The Finals Update Version 1.000.048 for Patch 3.12.0 Brings Bonus XP Matsuri, Bug Fixes

Embark has pushed out The Finals update version 1.000.048 on consoles and PC, and this is for the 3.12.0 patch that brings the Bonus XP Matsuri event, and bug fixes for various gameplay issues. Check out the new event and details in the patch notes below.

Say hello to the BONUS XP MATSURI event! From now until the end of the season, we’ve increased the XP amounts you get for playing, and doubled the amount of XP you obtain from Daily Contracts. Join the party and finish the Battlepass before Season 4!

For Cashout, we’re turning off the Defender bonus in the final round of a Tournament and introducing an Underdog bonus for squads with disconnected players.

After one of the most challenging Community Events yet, where we challenged you to play 6 million rounds partied up, we are glad to see you make it past the finish line at the last second! Well done! Expect the ISEUL-T Reality Check Frag Grenade skin to be added to your inventories soon!

Season 4 is on the horizon and we are excited to share what we’ve been working on very soon! Alongside all the new things we have prepared for you, you can expect balance changes that reflect on everything we’ve learned–and continue to learn– throughout Season 3. If you can’t wait, tune into Oscar’s stream tonight to perhaps hear something more…
