THE FINALS’ first cross-play open beta is here, and fans have waited in anticipation for this day. Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC players on Steam can all play from Oct. 26 until the open beta’s conclusion on Nov. 5.
The objective of the game is simple: Players are placed in teams of three with the task of finding a randomly generated cash drop and escorting it to a designated location elsewhere on the Virtual Arena map. Depending on the mode, you will have to contend with two or three other teams while you hunt for cash.
You’ll have a variety of weapons, abilities, and gadgets at your disposal as you duel it out with your foes in this fast-paced, first-person shooter. You’ll choose one of three classes: Light, Medium, and Heavy, each with access to a variety of weapons, abilities, and gadgets.
Below are all the weapons, specializations, and gadgets for each class, as well as their in-game descriptions. Given that the game is still in a testing phase, many of the items below may be subject to change before the game’s official launch later this year.
Weapons, specializations, and gadgets for the Light class
The Light class specializes in mobility. It’s the smallest hitbox of the three classes, but it also suffers from the smallest health pool. The Light class wants to get up close and personal, and then get out. Its weapon pool consists mostly of close-range weapons—such as submachine guns, pistols, and melee weapons—but it also has a few rifles for trick-shot enthusiasts.

Weapons, specializations, and gadgets for the Medium class
The Medium class is the most balanced class; it’s got average health and movement speed and is a good pick for first-time players as a result. With a shotgun, two assault rifles, a grenade launcher, and a riot shield in its arsenal, the Medium class excels in mid-range combat.
