It’s almost here! Season 4 is just around the corner and the developers decided to treat the players with some new details. The teaser trailer raised the players’ expectations and the accompanying blog post only confirmed that the upcoming Season will be epic. There was, however, one big change that intrigued many players. The Finals players will get to choose between three new Sponsors in Season 4.
Meet the New Sponsors
The blog post offered more details about these upcoming additions. It stated: “In the next chapter of THE FINALS, all contestants will have the opportunity to sign up to represent one of the three generous sponsors of Season 4. Your pick for the season will determine your rewards, and earn you and your Sponsor fans”.
Your first possible Sponsor is Holtow, represented by the CEO, Quemby Rutile. With taglines: “Digitally insured, virtually secured” and “With Holtow you can risk it all”, you simply know you are in safe hands. They promise to insure “virtually any virtual asset”, which sounds quite promising.
The second Sponsor is Engimo, represented by the CEO Ichikawa Natsume. Their moto is: “Beyond boundaries; within reach”. This company will allow you connect with anyone, anywhere, promising “unparalleled connectivity and speed in communications”.
Last, but certainly not least, is Iseul-T, a well-known fashion company. Their CEO, Yun Beom-seok, will help you “transcend the physical limitations of the meatspace with style”. This idea is only reinforced by the company’s moto: “You can be anybody. You can be everybody”.
The Finals Players Share Their Strategies for Picking a Sponsor in Season 4
Many of The Finals players were surprised by the addition of new Sponsors in Season 4. Of course, the thing that the fans talked about the most was FOMO, as picking a Sponsor automatically determines your rewards.
Automatic-Delivery30 noted: “Will I be locked out of 2/3rds of the cosmetic sponsor content as soon as I choose one? Will I even be able to preview all of the rewards in those paths before choosing? Previously, most content that was delivered each season was available to anyone willing to work/grind hard enough for it”.
ProteanSurvivor reassured all concerned players. This player said: “It’s extra free cosmetics. I don’t think picking 1 of 3 options qualifies as FOMO? I’m sure they’ll add more sponsors over the seasons and you’d eventually have them all”.
As for which Sponsor they’d pick, players were quite unanimous on how they’ll make a choice. As you may expect, in most cases it won’t be an informed choice. Alec_de_Large revealed: “The one with the color way that I find the most aesthetically pleasing”.
Other honorable mention is probably choosing by whomever offers the “drippiest fits”. Honestly, the devs will probably balance the offers, so we’ll probably go by that as well. How about you? Which Sponsor do you like the best?
