PlayStation Reveals Concord Roadmap With Pre-Load Going Live This Week

While PlayStation is laying off toward relying on its legacy IPs in 2024, the firm is platforming new live-service projects instead. Already, Helldivers 2 has proven to be one of the most popular releases for the year. Now in the latter half, Concord is next in line. Coming later this month, the new arena shooter takes a few pages from the likes of Overwatch & Paladins.

And while it does follow the free-to-play formula, PlayStation is charging this new game its live-service premium $40 pricing. Additionally, developer Firewalk Studios did clarify that all in-game purchases are solely cosmetic with no pay-to-win advantages. Sony is also boasting the new title with a limited-edition DualSense controller that releases in August as well.

Now looking towards post-launch after this month, Firewalk Studios reveals its content roadmap with Season 1 which kicks off this October. A new lore-filled ‘Freegunner Adventures: Guild Infiltration’ trailer was also uploaded which you can watch in the video below:

“From the very beginning, we wanted Concord to be a complete experience, where all core content is available to you on day-one and moving forward—not gated behind paid expansions or a Battle Pass. We take your investment in the game seriously and want to ensure that we bring all players along for the journey.

“Our first major content drop will arrive in October with the launch of Concord Season 1: The Tempest. Season 1 will mark the introduction of a brand new playable Freegunner, as well as a brand-new map, new Freegunner Variants, more earnable cosmetics and rewards, and a new season of weekly Cinematic Vignettes that will continue the story of the Northstar crew,” game director Ryan Ellis adds.

“With season 1, we’ll also be introducing an in-game store for those looking to personalize their Freegunners further with additional customization items and to continue to support the game. These will supplement the hundreds of rewards earnable through progression and will be solely cosmetic, optional, and have no gameplay impact. We’re also hard at work on future seasons, beginning with Season 2 launching in January 2025 and more seasonal drops throughout year one of Concord.”
