The Finals dev teases iconic Medieval map location with declaration “anything is possible”

The Finals Season 5 has largely been excellent with its Aztec theme plus the recent arrivals of Team Deathmatch and the temporary removal of an OP gadget. The game is in a very good place right now, and we can start looking ahead to Season 6. While we don’t know the theme for Season 6 yet, The Finals fans have been begging for a Medieval theme since at least Season 2, and Embark has just teased the possibility of it one day becoming reality.

The Finals dev teases Medieval map

Embark recently conducted an AMA with The Finals community on Reddit. This involved a lot of discussions about plans for the future of the game.

Although discussing their plans for the future, Embark didn’t specifically promise things for Season 6. They didn’t reveal the Season 6 location, theme, new maps, skins, or any other content specifically for the upcoming chapter.

One theme a lot of players would love for Season 6 is Medieval. While the likelihood of it happening for Season 6 is very slim, Embark has at least teased the idea of it one day becoming reality. In response to a user asking, “When is the medieval season dropping,” Embark Rob said:

“Considering Sweden has a lot of history we would LOVE to make a medieval map set in Stockholm “Old Town” at some point, that would be so cool and anything is possible in THE FINALS”.

While some maps in The Finals are modern day and others futuristic, the game has gone to the past before with 1568 Kyoto. It would be awesome to see The Finals revisit history once more by time travelling to a medieval map in Sweden, and it would be a great way for Embark to celebrate the history of the nation where their studio is located.

Again, a Medieval season is something fans have regularly requested, and it’s obvious why as a map where you can blow up castles would be incredible. If a Medieval season does happen, it will be interesting to see if Embark keep it grounded in reality or if they venture into more fantasy.
