Following Sony’s shock decision to haul live service hero shooter Concord offline two weeks after launch, its game director has reportedly stepped down with some staff concerned about the future of the studio. Kotaku reports that Ryan Ellis, who has served as Concord’s game director since January 2018, has told staff he has stepped down from the role and into a support function. Ellis’ name was attached to the statement published on the PlayStation Blog that announced Concord would be taken offline. Ellis said that "while many qualities of the experience resonated with players, we also recognize that other aspects of the game and our initial launch didn’t land the way we’d intended." Concord is one of the biggest video game disasters in PlayStation history. After years of costly development, the PvP first-person shooter launched August 23 priced $40 on PC and PlayStation 5, but its sales were estimated to be around only 25,000 and its peak Steam concurrent player count was shockingly low (Sony does not make PlayStation player numbers public). Sony then removed Concord from ***** just 11 days after launch, issuing refunds in the process. According to Kotaku, staff at the 150-person Firewalk, which Sony acquired in 2023 for an undisclosed fee, are anxiously awaiting their fate. While Ellis has indicated that Firewalk would “explore options” that suggest Concord may return in some form, some staff are said to be skeptical. Kotaku reports that some have been asked to pitch ideas for new games, some are speculating they may be drafted in to help develop another Sony game, while others ***** mass layoffs or even a studio shutdown. Sony’s gaming business has already suffered significant cuts in 2024. In February, it announced a round of layoffs affecting 900 staff, or about 8% of its global PlayStation workforce. The layoffs impacted a number of PlayStation studios, including Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Guerrilla, and Firesprite, but PlayStation's London studio was hit hardest with a notice of closure. Since then, Sony-owned Bungie has also suffered devastating cuts as Destiny 2 struggles to find commercial success. While Concord the video game is no more, it will live on later this year as part of Amazon’s Secret Level ****** animation anthology series. But Sony faces tough questions about its live service plans, which include Bungie’s Marathon and Haven’s Fairgame$. Last year, Sony president Hiroki Totoki committed to launching just six of 12 live service games in development, and one based on The Last of Us has already been canceled.

**** of War Ragnarök has a ‘mixed’ user review rating on Steam following its PC launch, with most of the complaints revolving around Sony’s controversial PlayStation Network Account requirement. Sony had made it clear on the **** of War Ragnarök Steam page that a PlayStation Network account would be required to play Sony Santa Monica’s purely single-player adventure, but that doesn’t seem to have prevented a number of negative reviews singling out the policy. One negative Steam review, from a user who refunded the game after just 20 minutes of play, called out the PSN requirement. “Creating a PSN account was something I knew was necessary in advance and I was prepared to do so, until I was met with the reality of it,” they said. “For *** residents at least, it requires submitting a mobile phone number to verify your age just to start with, and if that fails (which it did, no texts were ever received) your only recourse is to submit a photograph of your face or a government-issued ID to a third party website. If you're happy with that, go right ahead.” “Yeah I'm not linking my account to PSN especially for a single-player game,” reads another negative Steam user review, which also includes a list of Sony data breaches. Sony’s PSN account requirement for its PC games was thrust into the limelight with the release of Arrowhead’s explosive PC and PS5 co-op shooter Helldivers 2 earlier this year. Helldivers 2 suffered a review ***** campaign on Steam after Sony made PSN accounts mandatory for PC gamers on Valve’s platform (Arrowhead subsequently decided to turn the user review history graph into a cape, which is ready for launch but has yet to release). Sony eventually backed down and reversed Helldivers 2’s PSN account requirement, but the game ******** unavailable in the many countries that lack PSN. And indeed all Sony’s games on PC now suffer from this problem, which means **** of War Ragnarök is unavailable on PC in over 100 countries. It seems unlikely that Sony will change its mind again for **** of War Ragnarök, which means the game may have to live with its ‘mixed’ Steam user review rating for some time. As for how popular **** of War Ragnarök is on PC, Steam's official concurrent figures show 25,471 playing at the time of this article's publication. That's down significantly on the PC launch of **** of War, which saw a peak of 73,529 players on Valve's platform. **** of War Ragnarök continues the stories of Kratos and his now teenage soon, Atreus. The sequel was praised as an enthralling spectacle on its release, earning a 10 in IGN's review. "Impeccable writing, pitch-perfect performances, knockout action – it’s a complete work of art from top to bottom. Reflecting its core themes, it's everything a sequel should be: respectful of its legendary lineage, but not afraid to take it to exciting new places," we wrote at the time. "**** of War Ragnarok is an almighty achievement and creates a new high that makes many of its peers look positively mortal by comparison." Wesley is the *** News Editor for IGN.
