We explore the critical properties of the recently discovered finite-time dynamical phase transition in the non-equilibrium relaxation of Ising magnets. The transition is characterized by a sudden switch in the relaxation dynamics and it occurs at a sharp critical time. While previous works have focused either on mean-field interactions or on investigating the properties of the critical time, we analyse the critical fluctuations at the phase transition in the nearest-neighbor Ising model using Monte Carlo simulations. By means of a finite-size scaling analysis, we extract the critical exponents for the finite-time dynamical phase transition. In two spatial dimensions, these exponents turn out to be neither mean-field nor the same as at equilibrium. Instead, they seem to lie outside of the known universality classes, potentially representing a novel, non-equilibrium critical phenomenon.
