Less than 24 hours after Update 9.12.0 dropped, Embark is back with a hotfix. Hotfix 9.12.1 for The Finals went live on 6th March 2026, and it's a single, pointed fix rather than a balance pass.
The issue: the Discord SDK was saving excessive user information when logging was enabled. Embark was quick to clarify that no private or personal data was collected or shared, but they've stripped out the excessive logging regardless. They're also running a deeper audit to make sure nothing similar slips through. That's the right call, and the speed of the response is hard to fault.
This one won't change how the game feels, but privacy fixes deserve the same attention as weapon tuning.
