Every arena in THE FINALS with a one-line tactical tip, the variants it runs in ranked, and what the Season 12 reworks change. Map facts come from Embark and the official wiki.
THE FINALS has 12 full-size arenas, from Monaco's cobblestone streets to Seoul's skyscrapers. Season 12 reworks Monaco, Seoul and Skyway Stadium and updates Las Vegas Stadium. Patch 12.0.0 added no brand-new arena.

Refresh dueThe reworked layouts went live with patch 12.0.0 on October 20, 2026. Each card notes what changed; the tips below were written for the Season 11 layouts and we will refresh them as the new layouts settle.
Cobblestone streets built for destruction and close-quarters fights. In 12.0.0: reworked house interiors with new structural walls, penthouses and attics, plus redesigned areas with new cover, flanking routes, buildings and objective spaces.
Tip Close range and heavy destruction: expect fights through walls and floors, and keep a breaching tool for the cashout rooms.
Downtown skyscrapers with fast, vertical fights and long drops. In 12.0.0: the Mall, Data Center, Hospital, Apartments and Under Construction are reworked, with a new building, new cover, new routes and a new Cashout Station.
Tip Edges are lethal. Mobility (Grappling Hook, Jump Pad, Zipline) gets you back up and keeps you off open ledges.
An ever-changing stadium arena, billed as a treacherous playground. In 12.0.0: a fully redesigned Mansion diorama and layout changes to the Office, Hotels and Shopping District.
Tip The layout shifts with its variants, so re-check routes each round instead of autopiloting.
A town under the Peña de Bernal monolith: narrow cobblestone streets and rooftops.
Tip Fights funnel through narrow streets. Rooftop routes and cutting through walls open the flanks.
Elevated walkways, dense apartment blocks, riverfront views and gardens.
Tip Long walkway sightlines meet tight apartment fights, so carry something that works at both ranges.
A streamlined urban arena with a sector for each sponsor and highly vertical spaces. Added in Season 4.
Tip Height wins fights here. Jump Pads, Ziplines and Grappling Hook let you take the high ground fast.
A COMETA space-habitat suburb with center speed tunnels, anti-gravity columns and destructible towers. Added in Season 11.
Tip Rotate through the speed tunnels and anti-gravity columns. Destroyed towers reshape the routes mid-round.
Kyoto 1568: interwoven temples, gardens and bamboo forests with big height changes. The Moving Platforms variant is temporarily disabled in 12.0.0.
Tip There are hidden routes under the buildings, so check below you as well as above when you hold a cashout.
Glitz and glam with tight, close-knit gameplay. In 12.0.0 Embark said goodbye for now to the original Las Vegas map and brought back Las Vegas Sandstorm.
Tip Close quarters reward short-range weapons and quick trades. Clear rooms as a team.
Each sponsor has taken over a casino and rebuilt it in its own style. In 12.0.0: reworked power positions and sight lines across the Center, OSPUZE Casino and ALFA ACTA Casino.
Tip Every casino zone plays differently. Learn the entry routes into each sponsor zone.
A split arena: VAIIYA’s precise towers on one side and CNS’s iridescent chaos on the other.
Tip It swings from tight corridors to wide-open ground, so plan your crossing before you leave cover.
A glitchy neon city in the game show’s loading realm, with voxel bridges and glitched geometry. The Foggy Night condition is temporarily disabled in 12.0.0.
Tip Voxel bridges make long, exposed crossings. Smoke them or cross where you have cover.
Smaller arenas built for specific modes or training: Starlight Hollow (an ALFA ACTA village surrounded by flower fields), the P.E.A.C.E. Center (ALFA ACTA's combat test site) and the Practice Range, where you can try any loadout.
THE FINALS has 12 full-size arenas: Bernal, Fangwai City, Fortune Stadium, Galaxy Estates, Kyoto, Las Vegas, Las Vegas Stadium, Monaco, NOZOMI/CITADEL, Seoul, Skyway Stadium and SYS$HORIZON. There are also compact arenas for specific modes (Starlight Hollow, the P.E.A.C.E. Center) and the Practice Range.
Patch 12.0.0 (Season 12 PRIME TIME, October 20, 2026) reworks Monaco, Seoul and Skyway Stadium and gives Las Vegas Stadium reworked power positions and sight lines. The reworks add new spaces and landmarks, revise areas, clear up sightlines and add traversal options, along with sponsor identities, new lighting and new destruction assets. Embark also said goodbye for now to the original Las Vegas map and brought back Las Vegas Sandstorm, and temporarily disabled the Kyoto Moving Platforms variant and the SYS$HORIZON Foggy Night condition.
No. Patch 12.0.0 added no brand-new arena. Season 12 map work is the rework of Monaco, Seoul and Skyway Stadium, changes to Las Vegas Stadium, and the return of Las Vegas Sandstorm in place of the original Las Vegas map.
In Season 11, Ranked Cashout used all 12 arenas, several of them with variants such as Suspended Structures or Sandstorm. The 12.0.0 patch notes do not list the Season 12 ranked arena pool. See our ranked guide for the rules.
