Although Concord’s lifespan is shorter than that of a housefly, the game still became an online sensation, but unfortunately for the wrong reasons for its developers. Even before its release, the community heavily criticized the title for its generic, simple and boring graphic style, old-fashioned gameplay, boring level design, lack of fresh, original ideas and, of course, the $40 price tag.

Shortly after its launch, “Concord” made headlines when it was revealed that only around 25,000 copies had been sold, bringing the developers a profit of less than a million dollars – a drop in the ocean compared to the development costs, which were estimated at between 50 and 200 million dollars.

While it is indeed hilarious to poke fun at Concord’s failure, it’s important to note that many players were likely turned off not by the game’s visual style, but by its high price tag – especially considering that most other hero shooters like Overwatch, Paladins, Valorant, and others are free-to-play. Considering Ellis’ comments about exploring options to reach more players, it seems at least plausible that Concord could make a triumphant comeback as a F2P title in the future and finally reach that elusive 1,000 concurrent player milestone.
