Easter eggs and other secrets found in the Practice Range.
Five Roses
In the park, near the bench, there are five red roses. Four spawn on the ground and one spawns on the bench itself. Embark Studios CCO Rob Runesson has confirmed that they are related to an Easter egg. They were first discovered during Closed Beta 1.[1]
On February 3, 2024, Rob shared "CCLXIX" (269 in Roman numerals) as a clue in the official THE FINALS Discord server.[2] This was confirmed to be a reference to 269 AD, the year Saint Valentine died.[3]
During the May 8, 2024 Embark Studios AMA on r/thefinals, the team was asked for a hint towards the purpose of the roses; they replied with "Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum".[4] A month earlier on April 6, 2024, Rob had made the same response to a comment about a so called "bean" Easter egg.[5] The later AMA reply suggested that the roses Easter egg and "bean" Easter egg were the same thing, possibly relating to Jack and the Beanstalk.
On May 10, 2024, while discussing the three-headed monkey Easter egg, Rob told hunters that "Roses are available on all maps."[6]
On September 4, 2024, Rob replied to a Twitch chat message asking for a cryptic clue about the roses with "Nononono, I never leak, but I would use less nitrogen, and more potassium and phosphorus."
The Fine Finals
On the bottom of the Cashbox target rings, there is text that says "THE FINE FINALS" instead of the usual "THE FINALS."
