Trailer Easter Eggs

Easter eggs found in various trailers and promotional material for THE FINALS.

Trailers and Media

First Teaser Trailer

• About one second into the short seven-second first teaser for THE FINALS, a Vespa-style motorbike is seen from behind with Monaco plates that read "0074". Seemingly, a reference to a James Bond-style chase scene.

• 
  A Vespa-like motorbike with a 007 license plate seen in the first teaser for THE FINALS.

Announcement Trailer

• In the opening action-shots of the teaser (five seconds in), a barely-discernable inflatable flamingo is seen being thrown through the air amongst building debris that has been hit by a wrecking ball. The inflatable flamingo is a likely reference to flamingos shown in the ARC Raiders reveal trailer, as ARC Raiders was originally planned to release first.

• Two images are hidden in the trailer, each can be revealed by stitching together two of the four hidden frames dispersed throughout. They are presented with inverted colors and can be corrected for proper viewing. The image featuring jellyfish could be interpreted as a reference to the James Bond movie Skyfall, since it features a similar-looking scene.

Closed Beta 1 Trailer

• Certain frames of the trailer contained fragments of a picture. Upon piecing these four fragments together, an image of Nama Tama wearing glasses in a desert was revealed. The general consensus amongst the community's Easter Egg Hunters, was that this image was a reference to the sunglasses worn by Johnny Depp's character, Raoul Duke, and the Nevada location for the 1998 film Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, and, therefore, the image was a hint to the Las Vegas 2032 map, which was announced at the game's launch.

[ SEEK THE TRUTH BEYOND THE WALLS !]

• 
  The message from CNS

Open Beta Trailer

• Certain frames of the trailer contained fragments of a picture. Upon piecing these six fragments together, a scene was revealed. It appears to be a first-person view of a contestant in a gunfight. The weapon the contestant is holding seems to be the Model 1887 equipped with the Dough Wrangler skin. The community later realized that this was a teaser for the Las Vegas map, showing a gunfight in the Casino Eastwood building.

Season 1 Trailer

• During the trailer, a similar interruption occurs to the first CNS message, and the following text appears:
  GOOD EVENING !
THIS BROADCAST HAS BEEN HACKED BY CNS
[ ONE NIGHT, THREE DAWNS. SEE THE SIGNS ]

• For a single frame, a card with Robatama on it is visible. Robatama is a version of Nama Tama dressed as Embark's CCO Rob Runesson. This version of Nama Tama made its first appearance in THE FINALS Easter Egg Hunt during Tier 1E.

• Nama Tama makes an appearance on the face of a Jack of Clubs card, wearing a black knight's helmet and wielding an axe. Nama Tama was later depicted wearing the same armor in "THE_FINALS_I_Want_to", the first image of Level 3 of THE FINALS Easter Egg Hunt.
