Are The Finals servers down? What is the Error 500 code?

If the server capacity is full, you’ll get the error 500 code when you try to log in. All you can do is wait for a few minutes, reload The Finals, and try again. This is no surprise, as The Finals is one of the most in-demand FPS titles due to its innovative and fast-paced gameplay.

According to Embark Studios, for server stability issues, they will gradually increase the player cap of the server to accommodate everyone trying to play The Finals. This means players will continually experience the Error 500 until Embark Studios is confident that their servers can handle the maximum number of players without any issues.

Capping a server's maximum number of players is normal for live service game developers to ensure a smooth and stable experience for the largest amount of players during launch week. Embark also assured players that everyone will be able to play the game without any login problems in the future.
