Level 2 - The Promise was the second level of THE FINALS Easter Egg Hunt. It was activated on October 4, 2022 and ended on March 22, 2024, leading into Level 3 - The Hunt.

History

Activation

On October 2, 2022, Embark Studios CCO Rob Runesson posted an image of half of a QR code and a messageː "HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0O"^[1]^[2] (this has been edited for brevity, the full message was over 400 characters long). Later that day, hunters noticed that the 19th character in "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0O" was the number 0, not the letter O.^[3] Soon afterwards, hunters separately decoded the original half-QR code and found a new URL on the official THE FINALS website: reachthefinals.com/tfee_level2^[4] (this address was later replaced by reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2). On the page was a GIF of Nama Tama saying that "Level 2 - The Promise" was loading. Just one minute later, the URL reachthefinals.com/gooooooooooooooooo was discovered using the first 18 characters of "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0O" in Rob's earlier message.^[5] It contained the image "sneakyQR", a new quarter of the QR code that led to the Level 2 URL, although this was no longer needed. It was also found that reachthefinals.com/tfee redirected to the Level 2 URL.^[6]

On October 4, hunters noticed that reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2 was active. It contained links to 9 tiers, all locked and marked with an X. Tier 2ABC and Tier 2DEF were originally separated like the others, before being moved to share the same row. After completing a tier, its X would turn red and its password would appear below it.

-On October 2nd, 2022. Rob posted an image of half of a QR code and a messageː ''HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0O'' (This has been edited for brevity, the full message had ̃400 zeroes). It was noticed later that evening there was a 0 on the 18th position of the phrase. A few minutes later a new web address was found ''<nowiki>https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee_level2</nowiki>''  (This address was made inactive and leads to a 404 error, the updated address is https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2). On the site was a gif of [[Nama Tama]] saying that Level Two - THE PROMISE was loading. After midnight it was discovered that https://www.reachthefinals.com/gooooooooooooooooo contained a quarter of the QR code, although not needed now it was another clue to get to the TFEE Level2 Site.

-On October 4th it was discovered that https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2 was active, with 9 tiers all locked. (It is worth noting that at some point the Level 2 Page got changed so Tier 2ABC and T2DEF share the same line instead of separated like all the other tiers.)
