Sony axes its latest PlayStation game after just a few weeks. Concord sales will be refunded, and the game is going offline.

Sony is taking Concord, its latest PlayStation game, offline on September 6th, following poor sales of the game. The first-person hero shooter launched exclusively on PS5 and PC on August 23rd, but estimates have put sales at under 25,000. Concord also only managed to hit an all-time peak of 697 players on Steam, lower than the launch peak of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum — widely regarded as the worst game of 2023.

” If you purchased the game for PS5 from the PlayStation Store, a refund will be issued to your original payment method. If you purchased Concord on Steam, you’ll get a refund in the coming days, and the same will occur on the Epic Games Store. Concord launched as a $40 game after eight years of development and went up against many free-to-play alternatives like Overwatch and even Valorant in the competitive hero shooter genre.
