PlayStation’s decision to kill Concord prompts industry sympathy
After PlayStation and Firewalk made the decision to pull Concord from sale two weeks after the hero-shooter made its debut, industry members have started to share their sympathies with the team involved.
Gears of War’s Cliff “CliffyB” Bleszinski shared a short post on social media, reading: “Concord, I feel your pain.”
Bleszinski previously set up Boss Key Productions, a now defunct studio, which released its own hero shooter, LawBreakers. Despite a big pre-release push by publisher Nexon, LawBreakers flopped, with its Steam concurrent player count peaking at 7482 in June 2017 when it launched via open beta.
