Sony launched its new game Concord with high hopes. This space-themed shooter game, released simultaneously for PlayStation 5 and computers, unfortunately did not receive the anticipated interest. Priced at $39.99 on Steam, Concord did not even reach 1000 players on its launch day. According to SteamDB data at the time of writing, only 205 people were playing the game. The highest number of concurrent players in the last 24 hours was recorded as 697. Despite these low numbers, 214 reviews of the game have 78% in favor. Although the graphics and gameplay are enjoyable, Concord failed to make the expected global impact.
Negative Reactions and Expectations Regarding Sony’s Concord Game
Although there is no official statement from Sony, it can be said that the PC version of Concord was a significant disappointment for the company. This could be a result of negative perceptions among players due to policies like the mandatory PSN account for the past game Helldivers 2. Players’ reactions to Sony could directly affect their interest in the company’s newly released games. How Sony will manage this situation and regain players’ trust is a matter of curiosity.
Most Reviews Are Positive
Despite these low numbers, 214 reviews of the game are 78% positive. This rate shows the potential of the game and that players are satisfied with some features. However, these positive reviews have had a limited effect on the overall success of the game.
