≈Vanuckle 2,199 Posted September 3, 2024 Share Posted September 3, 2024 After 8 years of development, $200m invested, and an insane monetary structure for the game, Concord was released last week to much skepticism. Dubbed as a game similar in play style to Overwatch, and soon to be released game Marvel RIvals, Concord was riddled with skepticism for many years before release. Upon release this week, the game did not even reach 1000 concurrent players and has been seen as low as 27 concurrent players as of today. Keep in mind this game was released as a AAA game at full price this week. Today, Sony released a statement saying that Concord has been shut down, removed from the game stores, and all players will be offered refunds. https://blog.playstation.com/2024/09/03/an-important-update-on-concord/ Is this the biggest gaming release failure of all time? How will this impact Sony’s bottom line? Will you be playing Marvel Rivals? Please discuss.

Kody 101 Posted September 3, 2024 Share Posted September 3, 2024 When the top title of your genre (Overwatch) is dying and OW2 was universally panned - it's not a good sign for the genre of shooter.
