When the ill-fated PlayStation 5 exclusive Concord was pulled offline earlier this year, it wasn’t clear yet whether Sony would spend time to rework the game or simply shut it down for good. Now we have the answer, and it’s the worst case scenario for the game’s players and developers alike. Sony is abandoning Concord, dissolving the studio that made it, and closing an unrelated mobile game studio while it’s at it.
Sony announced that it’s closing Firewalk Studios in an October 29 press release from PlayStation CEO Hermen Hulst. “After much thought, we have determined the best path forward is to permanently sunset the game and close the studio,” he said. ”I want to thank all of Firewalk for their craftsmanship, creative spirit and dedication.”
