A brand-new set of 1.10.0 patch notes just dropped for The Finals from Embark Studios. This time, the game dives into the Wild West with ‘Old West Monaco.’ While the game has previously focused on modern futuristic cities, it looks like the developers are shaking things up this time around.

In addition to the new setting, an old mode is making a comeback – Single Round Tournament. In the words of Embark, ‘four teams enter the Arena at once and compete against each other in a single round.’ This will be available till the 7th of March. And cashing in contracts will give you a shot at the High Noon Noir outfit.

Now let’s get to the entire 1.10.0 patch notes from the official website. For more on the game, check out our The Finals weapon tier list and best Light loadout.
