Concord Has No Battle Pass — “You Own Concord, Concord Doesn’t Own You”
With the beta over, Firewalk Studios is revealing what players can expect with the launch of Concord, along with what’s coming after the game’s release. Notably, one popular element seen in many online shooters will be missing on purpose: a battle pass.
Mark DeRidder, gameplay animation director at Firewalk, shared this decision on X by adding: “You own Concord, Concord doesn’t own you.” DeRidder, for his part, previously worked on one of the most popular games in the world with a battle pass as a developer at Raven Software on Call of Duty: Warzone, per LinkedIn.
No Battle Pass, folks. You own Concord, Concord doesn’t own you. https://t.co/lZ3Zkv2THD

While there is no battle pass, Firewalk is promising “new Freegunners, maps, modes, and more” after Concord launches on August 23. Additionally, this will come with “no additional cost.” Concord isn’t free-to-play, but instead costs $40.
