Solo Bank It in The Finals explained

Similar to the already existing Bank It mode, the rules are a little tweaked for the brand new Solo Bank It in The Finals. The main aim is to pick up coins either by killing your opponents or from the vaults full of cash. Whoever gets to the $40,000 goal or the majority amount of cash among all after the time expires, gets the win.

Additionally, Solo Bank It’s rules work pretty much in a similar way. However, you play alone and don’t have to worry about your teammates' positioning and situation. Embark has kept the lobby size to 12. Some netizens say it has become more fast-paced than previous modes since players don’t need to worry about their teammates and are bound to their goal - deposit coins only.

Meanwhile, the developers haven’t mentioned the exact time when this limited-time experimental event is going to end. Additionally, talking about the gameplay, it directly challenges the core features. Light Build characters feel too overpowered since they are superior in terms of mobility to Heavy and Medium Builds. They seem the perfect fit as they can skate around the map and reach the deposit boxes way before other classes.

Numerous players have complained about the skewed power of this experimental mode, including gun damage, gadget balancing, and more.
