To change your name in THE FINALS, you must head to the Embark Studios website and go through the options provided. 

  1. Firstly, sign in to Embark Studio’s website by clicking your preferred platform and filling in your details. 
  2. Then click Account, and you’ll be taken to a screen where you can see your username and email address.
  3. There will be a button toward the top right of the screen saying Edit. This is your ticket to a whole new name and whatever persona comes with it. 
  4. Fill in your desired name, click save, and you’ll be done.
Tip:

Changing a nickname requires players to create an Embark Studios account. You need the account to access the name change system.

How often can you change your name in THE FINALS?

After changing your name in THE FINALS, you won’t be allowed to edit it again for at least 10 minutes. If you picked the wrong name or perhaps misspelled it, wait a while, then go back in and edit it again.

There is no limit to how many times you can change your name—you just won’t be able to spam change it every minute.

Does it cost money to change your name in THE FINALS?

At this stage, changing your name in THE FINALS does not cost you any money. Unlike other titles, Embark has left names and aliases free to change whenever the player wants.

While there is every chance the devs may change their minds, nothing has been said that would indicate Embark will charge players to change their names in the future. Ideally, being able to make this name change in the client would be a great option, but that might also open up the idea of using the game’s currency to make an edit.

Until such time, feel free to change your name as much as you like—wait 10 minutes between each edit.


So, there you have it. You now know everything you need about changing your username in THE FINALS. Enjoy!
