Concord Is PS5’s First Flop of 2024

From the very moment Concord was unveiled for PS5 in May, I knew its journey to success was highly unlikely. Arriving years after the hero shooter trend had taken off and attempting to break into an already overcrowded market filled with established powerhouses, it seemed like an uphill battle from the start. The reveal trailer showcased uninspiring characters and cheesy dialogue that resembled a cheap Marvel knockoff, making its prospects even more grim. And unfortunately, those odds are proving true. Concord launched today on both PS5 and PC, but it’s not looking good for the game. At this point, unless there’s an unexpected miracle on the horizon, Concord is already as good as gone.
