Concord Reviews
Concord is unfortunately another undistinguished hero shooter. It offers nothing special to set it apart from the competition, while offering a dull cast of characters, an unnecessary storyline that took off without any prior player engagement.

Although Concord is solid and polished on a basic level, it's faced with an uphill battle that it already seems to be losing. A shotgun blast approach that attempts to hit the basic notes of every hero shooter prerogative makes it harder for it to do one thing in a truly fresh way, and the casual modes would be more exciting with bigger abilities and maps with more interesting pressure points. The game's systems click in Rivalry and get the job done across the other game modes, but Concord lacks the spark necessary to light much of a flame.
Concord is an expensive game that offers little to justify its price tag, lacking in charisma and, worse still, lacking in audience support. As a GaaS, it exemplifies how destructive this business model can be when poorly planned. Unfortunately, the game met its fate, with servers scheduled to be temporarily suspended on September 6, 2024, less than a month after launch. Firewalk Studios’ first venture shows competence, but it is destined to be remembered as the biggest failure of 2024 and, possibly, of the PlayStation brand itself.

If you’re absolutely itching for a new hero shooter to check out, I definitely think you can have some fun with Concord, but if you’re still on the fence, you might be better off waiting just a bit longer to see how or if Concord can overcome its rocky launch.
Concord tenta inspirar-se noutros jogos semelhantes, mas as personagens, gameplay e história do jogo são demasiados genéricos para justificarem um preço de 39.99€.

Concord is not a bad title, it is polished in some details, fun in some mechanics, and you can see the passion of the developers for the project, which, however, seems to be a victim of the changing times. With more content it could have created its own niche, which would have guided the developers to significantly wiser choices on the gameplay and modes offered.

All in all, Concord feels like a missed opportunity that arrived far too late. It’s as if the game is trying to recapture the magic of a bygone era, but the spark just isn’t there.
Concord is a definitely a next-gen game with its space bound designs and sharp effects, but the core gameplay itself lacks innovation. Hero shooter had its time in the gaming industry, and if it has to come back, it needs a new element which Concord lacks.
While Concord has a long way to go before it can be considered a competitor to the likes of Overwatch or Valorant, it shouldn’t be written off entirely. With continued post-launch support, balancing updates, and a commitment to addressing player feedback, Concord could potentially grow into a respectable entry in the team-based FPS genre. However, as it stands now, it remains an unfinished product with more promise than delivery. There’s still time for Concord to rise to the challenge and prove itself, but it needs serious improvements to match the lofty ambitions and expectations set forth by its creators.
Concord is a polished, entertaining multiplayer shooter, but one that doesn't quite succeed in carving out a space in an already crowded genre.
Concord is the new online multiplayer hero shooter developed by Firewalk Studios and PlayStation Studios. that pits two teams of five players against each other in intense combat with a high strategy component. With 16 characters, several levels, and plenty of content to start, the game is structured in seasons where content will be added for free, including more characters, levels, and additional game modes. Although it is not easy to enter a market where competition has been established for several years, we can say without a doubt that Concord has all the ingredients to try it successfully.

Concord is an honest shooter that really does a lot right during gameplay. The weapons feel good, everything looks nice and there's plenty of content and no microtransactions. Unfortunately, the game is already under a bad star. There is a lack of identity, originality and, based on current figures, a lack of players very soon. Let's hope for the best, because Concord really deserves a chance.

While the overall package is a little light, and it needs more endearing content relating to the Freegunners, Concord has become one of my go-to shooters due to top-tier gunplay, mechanics, and team play.
Concord, despite its shortcomings, is a well-designed game, from a development team that has put a lot of love into their project and shows that they are going to support it as far as they are allowed to.

Concord shows promise in the hero shooter genre with solid technical performance and enjoyable gameplay. However, its bland characters, dull lore, and limited game modes hold it back.

Right now it’s a decent more-of-the-same option and a missed opportunity for Sony.
For fans of hero shooters, Concord can certainly provide some entertainment, but the question remains whether that will be enough to retain players in the long term. It is already noticeable on Playstation that the search for a game takes quite a long time, so soon after release. On PC, the peak on Steam is less than 700 players. Firewalk Studios will have to work very hard to add good content as quickly as possible, otherwise it seems that the only way to attract players is to go free-to-play, and that will not look good with paying players. go in. For now, though, Concord is stuck in the middle of the pack, visually appealing but with no depth and little reason to keep playing for any length of time.

Concord isn't a bad game. It's a solid hero-shooter with appropriate gunplay and movement. With the right squad by your side, the 5v5-matches are solid fun. Yet again, Concord plays it very safe and doesn't stand out in any department against free-to-play-competitors like Valorant or Apex Legends.

If you are a lover of 5vs5 shooters you are going to love it, graphically it is spectacular and although in terms of game design it is a little green, we hope that Firewalk does a great job with its free updates

Concord is a great shooter that will pleasantly surprise those willing to tune out the outside noise. Within is fantastic minute-to-minute gunplay and action, complimented by a diverse cast with diverse abilities that can mix up a game at a moment's notice. Though it's perhaps the least revolutionary game we've seen in a long time and still in need of small functions like leaderboards and a clearer vision for its future, what's here today is some of the best multiplayer gaming I've experienced in forever. I've found so many weirdo heroes I've grown a rich affinity for, whether it's via their deep-prosed lore or their chaos-causing gameplay. Concord's fate isn't quite written in the stars yet; it's far better than a majority are giving it credit for. I pray you join me and other Freegunners on this voyage. We need you.
