Easter eggs and other secrets found in the SYS$HORIZON arena.
Cornell Box
One of the rooms on Horizon is modeled after a Cornell Box, which are used to test realistic 3D rendering.
Dolphins
Added in Season 2, the dolphins are one of the three easter eggs required to activate level 3 of THE FINALS Easter Egg Hunt. They can be activated by 7 players standing on tiles marked with letters on the sunset variation of Horizon.
On April 4th, Rob first hinted at the dolphins by telling hunters "don’t forget to watch the sunset…". The next day, the activation page for level 3 was released. Among other easter eggs, it featured a dolphin made of voxels associated the 2.0.0 update, which suggested the Season 2 arena Horizon.
On April 7th, hunters frösty, R.Cade and RockhoundBlack noticed letters on some boxes on the arena's sunset variant. Hunter CEO_Reuben found that collectively these spelled "cetacea", the infraorder to which dolphins belong. Soon afterwards, hunters tried standing on each tile simultaneously, while looking towards the sunset, which triggered three dolphins to emerge from the water in front of the sunset. Once activated, the dolphins continue swimming in circles and porpoise out of the water until the round ends.
In May, Rob revealed that a unique dolphin charm could also be unlocked in some way. It requires activation in a public match as opposed to private, and hunters were instructed to "play the game... what would a dolphin do...".
