Sony’s failed 5v5 hero shooter game, Concord, is now officially offline just two weeks after its PS5 and PC launch – its short life ending abruptly with an indecipherable “error” message.
Concorde was Unveiled last May As part of former PlayStation boss Jim Ryan’s Optimistic expansion in live-service gamingUnfortunately for Sony and developer Firewalk Studios, Concord’s launch this August failed to make much of an impact – player numbers were very low, and later reports claimed Only about 25,000 copies were sold,
Still, it was a bit of a surprise when Sony announces the discontinuation of Concorde Shortly after release earlier this week, Firewalk admitted that “our initial launch did not land” and confirmed that Concorde would be taken offline today. And its life – at least in its current form – has now officially come to an end; servers shut down a little before 7pm today in the U.K., leaving players with nothing more than a brief “error” message and instructions on how to back up the game.
But The game’s subredditHowever, Concord’s community team shared a more heartfelt message, writing, “On behalf of everyone at Firewalk, thank you for all of your support. We are so grateful to those of you who spent your time with us, making memories, and learning what it means to be a Freegunner.” It also noted that the game’s Discord server would remain open, though changes would be made to “streamline interactions.”

Whether or not Concorde still has a future is still unclear. Firewalk previously said it would “determine the best path forward” and “explore options” following the game’s closure, suggesting it could one day return in a completely new form. However, Concorde’s closure will not affect its appearance in Amazon’s upcoming animated video game anthology series Secret Levels, according to a report Recent Reports – Then there’ll be one last chance to say goodbye.
