Concord, the new 5v5 character-driven, first-person multiplayer shooter set in what was supposed to be a new and thriving galaxy for PS5 and PC players, is being taken offline on September 6, 2024 so its developer, Firewalk Studios, can “explore options, including those that will better reach our players,” game director Ryan Ellis has announced. Ellis, who shared the news in a message to players on the official PlayStation blog today, mentioned that refunds will be issued to players, including those that purchased the game from Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Ellis on the refund process:
- “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.”

Ellis previously said of Concord:
We built Concord as a love-letter to aspirational sci-fi adventure, inspired by our favorite art, anime, films, and TV series. Combined with our deep love of multiplayer, we’re dedicated to creating those had-to-be-there, down to the wire moments with your friends and creating a sense of adventure as you discover more about the galaxy, the characters you play as, and the worlds you visit every time you log on.
