Sony's Concord Flop Receives Ongoing Steam Updates

by Zoey Dec 10,2024

Despite its disastrous launch and subsequent removal from digital stores, Sony's hero shooter, Concord, continues to receive updates on Steam. This unexpected activity has sparked considerable speculation among gamers.

Concord's Post-Launch Updates Fuel Speculation

Concord, which launched to underwhelming reception in August, was pulled from sale just weeks later. Yet, SteamDB records show over 20 updates since September 29th, attributed to accounts like "pmtest," "sonyqae," and "sonyqae_shipping," suggesting internal development and testing efforts.

Concord, Sony's Major Flop, Continues to Get Updates on Steam

Will Concord Become Free-to-Play?

Many believe these updates signal a potential relaunch, possibly as a free-to-play game. This would address the criticism surrounding its initial pricing. Given Sony's reported $400 million investment in the game, attempts to recoup this investment are not surprising. The updates could reflect efforts to revamp gameplay, addressing complaints about uninspired character design and mechanics.

While speculation runs rampant – improved gameplay, new features, a free-to-play model – Sony remains silent. Concord's future remains uncertain, but even a free-to-play relaunch would face stiff competition in a saturated market. For now, it remains unavailable for purchase, leaving its ultimate fate shrouded in mystery.
