The Finals came out of the gates swinging, getting a surprise launch at the Game Awards. The title sees you load into an arena with a fully destructible environment, but you don’t have to take on the pressures of being on the world’s biggest stage alone. You can invite your friends to join you in The Finals and it’s simple once you know how.
Whether you’re on Xbox, PlayStation or Steam, the process of inviting other players to your party is the exact same. The maximum party size is three, so you can have up to two friends fighting alongside you.
