Concord Has Sold About 25,000 Copies And Should Have Launched As A Free Game, Analysts Say
The latest big PlayStation game, the multiplayer shooter Concord from developer Firewalk Studios, was a misfire upon release earlier this month and might have sold only 25,000 copies.
GameDiscover.co analyst Simon Carless told IGN that Concord likely sold 10,000 units on Steam and 15,000 on PlayStation as of the end of August. Concord struggling to sell would not be a surprise, as the game peaked at 697 concurrent players on Steam and is currently outside the top 100 best-selling games on PlayStation.
Circana analyst Mat Piscatella told IGN that fewer than 0.2% of PS5 active players were logged into the game on Monday, August 26. Liam Deane, an analyst at Omdia, told the website, “The Steam numbers are so bad that even without the exact data on the PS5 side we can be pretty certain that the game is doing very badly.”
