For nylig slog en rapport fast at der måske kun er blevet solgt lige omtrent 25.000 eksemplarer af Concord, og det er ganske tydeligt at spillet er kommet så skævt fra start, at vedligeholdelsen af spillet som en sund live service ville blive ret så svært.

I stedet har Sony og Firewalk nu valgt, bare få uger efter lanceringen, at tage spillet helt offline fra både PlayStation Network, Steam og Epic Game Store, og begynde at tilbyde refunderinger til dem der har købt det. Faktisk er der bare få dage til at spillet forsvinder og udgår helt.

I en meddelelse på PlayStation Blog siger Firewalk-chef Ryan Ellis, at ideen er at finde en måde at bringe spillet tilbage på. Det insinueres af spillet vil vende tilbage som free-to-play, men den overgang vil nok kræve ret betragtelige ressourcer, så det vides ikke hvornår vi ser det igen, hvis nogensinde.

Vi har indsat Ellis' fulde meddelelse herunder:

"Concord fans — we've been listening closely to your feedback since the launch of Concord on PlayStation 5 and PC and want to thank everyone who has joined the journey aboard the Northstar. Your support and the passionate community that has grown around the game has meant the world to us.

However, while many qualities of the experience resonated with players, we also recognize that other aspects of the game and our initial launch didn't land the way we'd intended. Therefore, at this time, we have decided to take the game offline beginning September 6, 2024, and explore options, including those that will better reach our players.

While we determine the best path ahead, Concord sales will cease immediately and we will begin to offer a full refund for all gamers who have purchased the game for PS5 or PC. If you purchased the game for PlayStation 5 from the PlayStation Store or PlayStation Direct, a refund will be issued back to your original payment method.

Customers who purchased from other digital storefronts will also be refunded. More information about refunds from Steam and Epic can be found below:

Steam Store - Steam Store will refund players who bought the game over the coming days. Steam will send confirmation of the refund once it has been processed.

Epic Games Store - Epic Games Store will refund players who bought the game over the coming days and will contact each customer directly to confirm that the refund has been processed.

Other retailer refunds - For customers who have purchased a physical copy at a retailer location outside of PlayStation directly, please refer to the refund process of the retailer you purchased it from to obtain your refund.

Once refunded, players will no longer have access to the game.

We'll keep you updated and thank you again to all the Freegunners who have joined us in the Concord galaxy.

* Refunds for PlayStation Store and PlayStation Direct purchases may take 30-60 days to appear on your bank statement. If your original payment source was unavailable, the purchase amount will be refunded to your PSN wallet."

ANMELDELSE. Skrevet af Magnus Groth-Andersen

Firewalk Studio har allerede de rigtige intentioner, og har designet en kompetent hero shooter, men for mange forvirrende beslutning drukner det hele.
