Structures now destroy each other.

THE FINALS has become even cooler with Smooth Destruction, a new system that makes collapsing structures or objects damage other buildings.
"Starting with suspended structures and cranes, making these crash down can cause real damage and totally reshape the environment, creating new emergent play spaces in the process!"
Smooth Destruction, introduced for Season 8, allows for knock-on effects and chain reactions, which can open new routes and strategic options. Embark believes this is "proof that evolving our core systems can transform the Arena just as much as brand-new features."
And more is coming, according to the developer, which promises to "keep pushing the boundaries and spreading Smooth Destruction across every Arena in new and exciting ways."
Embark Studios has several former Battlefield developers working on THE FINALS, which makes you wonder if EA's new game in the series could have been different.
