The Finals recently received its newest weekly update. This introduced a couple of spooky skins and cosmetics to the game along with some map decorations for the HOLTOW Classic. Unfortunately, it’s not the big All Hallow’s Eve update players were expecting, but the good news is that more Halloween goodness is definitely coming to The Finals very soon.

Make sure to check out the update 4.4.0 patch notes to see the latest nerfs and balance changes implemented by Embark. In addition, players can now get some unique Halloween rewards for a limited-time only, and Embark has responded to accusations of being “scummy” for reselling a cosmetic previously dubbed ‘exclusive’ to the Season 1 battle pass.

While some fans were disappointed with the Halloween update thinking Embark has shared everything, the good news is that the developer has confirmed more trick-or-treat celebrations are on the way.

Embark teases more Halloween updates for The Finals

There is more Halloween content set to arrive in The Finals. In-game for the HOLTOW Classic, players can see that week 6 is labelled Trick or Treat. This is after the current HOLTOW Classic, Cosmic Liability, which has brought alien anti-gravity beams and super-charged lasers with Halloween-themed decor to the following maps:

  • Skyway Stadium
  • Vegas
  • Monaco
  • Seoul

We don’t know what Trick or Treat will involve, but it’s likely this is the Halloween LTM previously teased by Embark. It should arrive with the update expected to land on October 30th unless there’s a delay.

In addition to Trick or Treat scheduled in the HOLTOW Classic, on Discord Dusty has teased “More Halloween is coming next week”. There’s no specifics shared by the developer, but we’re expecting more Halloween skins and themed weapons.

Hopefully any Halloween skins next week will be great. The Alien outfit is neat, albeit controversial, and the pumpkin head is cool, too, but hopefully we get something especially creative and gruesome.
