It's a big flop but the hype was never there for it from the beginning. It looked like a 2018 derivative in the live thread when it was announced. All the initial reactions showed what people really thought. Now some brand supporters did circle back to try to ďefend it but this thing always looked like a miss.

can't believe yal are talking yourselves into some mob agenda being the primary reason this or any game is in the gutter
:mjlol: First time I saw this shyt and they intro'd the characters and the designs looked like AI generated shovel wear

Then I learned it was 8 years in the making and $100+ million to make a Overwatch clone

Who thought this would make it

Would it have sold better if they used characters from sony IPs like Ellie, Kratos, Nathan? If they found a way to throw the characters in a gameshow to explain why they all use guns. At least that would've made me check the game out :manny:

However, while many qualities of the experience resonated with players, we also recognize that other aspects of the game and our initial launch didn’t land the way we’d intended. Therefore, at this time, we have decided to take the game offline beginning September 6, 2024, and explore options, including those that will better reach our players.

While we determine the best path ahead, Concord sales will cease immediately and we will begin to offer a full refund for all gamers who have purchased the game for PS5 or PC.

:damn:
