DAY 5 | Las Vegas Stadium
Season 6 comes with a new twist on an old favorite! Las Vegas Stadium is a full-scale transformation of the original Las Vegas map. Reimagined as a championship arena, with our seasonal Sponsors taking over the casinos and turning them into massive, branded venues. We also took the opportunity to refine gameplay by reducing visual clutter, especially in interior spaces, making main routes cleaner and more readable, enhancing navigation and flow.
Let’s take a closer look:

DAY 7 | Meet the Music
Today we’re debuting Into The Unknown, a song from the Season 6 Soundtrack for THE FINALS!
This season, Carl Strandberg, Olof Strömqvist, Ed Hargrave and Christopher Peduru-Aratchi worked together to bring you six tracks designed to ready you for the bright lights of the Arena by infusing attitude, glamour and destruction.

The music genres that inspire THE FINALS have a lot in common with its worldbuilding. This season, you’ll find throwbacks to disco with a dark twist, along with more modern sounds. The gameshow often honors the past with various locations and looks to capture the feeling through music, architecture, and style.
Season 6 also comes with a sporty vibe, so expect luscious pads, fat distorted basses, key raises, drum solos, guitar solos, synth solos and all of those extravagant, fun, and groovy parts!
