Summary
- Concord has received a backend update every day for 11 days straight.
- The speculation suggests Concord will return as a free-to-play title.
- Concord has faced many challenges.
Concord has been updated in the backend 11 days in a row according to data. We don't know the specifics of these updates, but it's proof that Sony and Firewalk Studios aren't abandonꦬing their very expensive failed live-service project completely.
The community has been speculating t🅠hat Concord might return as a free-to-play title with cosmetic microtransactions in the hopes that a small, core fan base could recoup some development costs. It certainly wouldn't be the first turnaround in gaming history, but it would be one of the unlikeliest. Concord debuted to no fanfare and ultimately failed to attract the attention of players, but perhaps its cult status of being a very expensive flop could help garner more attention around a re-launch.
Concord Has Been Updated 11 Days in a Row
After all, the problem with Concord was never that it seemed unfinished or technically deficient; the problem was that Concord is a pay-to-play live-service hero shooter developed by an unknown studio that isn't attached to a popular IP and launched in a market that's becoming increasingly hostile to live-service title♛s. Success wasn't impossible, but it wasn't likely, either.
The wasn't too bad either, with a lot of reviewers acknowledging that the core gunplay is very satisfying, but with the caveat, that it's all very reminiscent of existing hero shooters. Our own Sam Hallahan said Concord "struggled to stand out in a crowded hero shooter market," in his 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:3/5 review.
One of the strang🎃est consequences of Concord's massive marketing spend is that we're getting an episode of the upcoming anthology series Secret Level that's set in Concord's universe. Concord will join titles like Pac-Man, Unreal Tournament and Armored Core in being adapted for the animated anthology. Tragically, the number of people who will watch that episode of Secret Level may be larger than the number of people who played Concord.
It appears likely that Concord won't be completely abandoned, and only time will tell how Sony and Firewalk are going to try and turn the situation aro𝄹und. For now, Concord remains unavailable to play on every platform.
Concord is an upcoming FPS from Firewalk Studios, part of the PlayStation Studios family. A PvP multiplayer title, it is slated for launch on both PS5 and PC in 202💎4.
