THE FINALS is a fast-paced, team-based shooter where understanding your surroundings and objectives is crucial for victory. Map and objective markers provide vital information, guiding players to key locations and indicating the status of objectives.

Key Map Elements:

• Objective Markers: These icons clearly indicate the location of objectives such as Cashout Stations and Vaults. Their appearance and color often change to reflect the current state (e.g., available, contested, or in progress).
• Team Markers: Icons above teammates' heads and on the minimap help you keep track of your squad.
• Enemy Markers: While direct enemy visibility is limited, certain abilities or environmental interactions can reveal enemy positions, often displayed as temporary markers on the map or in the world.
• Navigation Aids: Arrows or highlighted paths may appear to guide players towards objectives or specific points of interest, especially during initial drops or respawns.

Objective States:

• Available: The objective is ready to be interacted with.
• Contested: Multiple teams are fighting over the objective.
• Secured: An objective has been successfully captured or cashed out.
• Vault Opening: Indicates that a vault is about to open, revealing a new objective.
