Sony Shuts Down Firewalk Studios Following Disastrous Launch of Concord Game
Sony has announced the closure of Firewalk Studios, the development team behind the recently released game Concord for the PlayStation 5. This decision comes after the game’s disastrous launch, which led to its shutdown less than two weeks after its release.
The game, a PS5 shooter, faced significant issues and negative feedback from players, prompting Sony to take it offline last month. The failure of Concord has resulted in the permanent shutdown of Firewalk Studios, marking a significant setback for Sony’s gaming division.
This news was first reported by Bloomberg‘s Jason Schreier and has been confirmed by various gaming news outlets. The closure highlights the challenges and risks involved in game development and the importance of a successful launch in the competitive gaming market.
