North American esports organization ENVY has announced a significant expansion into the competitive scene of The Finals, a fast-growing first-person shooter developed by Embark Studios.
In a major development revealed via social media, ENVY confirmed that it is not only entering the title with a full roster but has also been named the first partnered team in the game’s evolving esports ecosystem. This announcement comes as The Finals gears up for its first major global competition at DreamHack Stockholm this November.

ENVY’s Strategic Return and Expansion
The move marks another strategic step for ENVY, which has been steadily rebuilding its brand since founder Mike ‘Hastr0’ Rufail reacquired it from OpTic Gaming earlier this year.
Since the re-acquisition in January 2025, ENVY has rapidly expanded into several emerging competitive titles, including Marvel Rivals, Halo, and Rainbow Six Siege. The organization’s entry into The Finals underlines its commitment to staking an early claim in the newest frontiers of esports.
Early Movers in a New Esports Scene ENVY is among the first esports organizations to establish a dedicated trio for The Finals, joining the likes of Pulsar Esports in preparing to compete in both developer-run and third-party tournaments.
While details around Embark Studios’ partnership program remain limited, ENVY’s designation as a partnered team signals the beginning of a structured ecosystem. In January, Embark Studios had stated that The Finals “is on the road to esports,” though specifics about benefits, revenue sharing, or team incentives under the partnership program have yet to be disclosed.
DreamHack Major on the Horizon
In May, The Finals took its first major step into the global esports circuit by partnering with DreamHack to host its inaugural Major at DreamHack Stockholm. That event is scheduled for November and is expected to showcase the game’s competitive potential on a large stage.
What is The Finals?
The Finals is a free-to-play team-based first-person shooter known for its highly destructible environments, vertical gameplay, and dynamic objective-based combat. Developed by Embark Studios, the game pits teams of three against one another in a televised game-show-style setting where players battle over cash boxes and compete to extract the most money.
