Concord (video game)

Concord is a multiplayer first-person hero shooter video game developed by Firewalk Studios and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Released in August 2024 for PlayStation 5 and Windows, the game is set in a retro-futuristic science fiction universe where teams of human and alien mercenaries engage in combat.

The game was notable for being a high-profile release from a Sony-owned studio, entering the competitive hero shooter genre. However, it experienced a short lifespan, failing to retain a significant player base and leading to its servers being shut down shortly after launch.

Recently, the term "Concord shooting" has appeared in news headlines, but this references an unrelated real-world incident. Multiple news outlets have reported on a shooting that disrupted a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in the city of Concord, North Carolina. These reports describe an event where gunfire caused panic and ended the public celebration early, with police launching an investigation. The coincidental name has caused some confusion, but the video game and the recent news event are entirely separate.
