Concord is Sony’s newest console exclusive to launch simultaneously across both PS5 and PC. This is following in the footsteps of Helldivers 2, and hopefully it’s something that becomes more common in the future. The release date and time countdown for when Concord will come out is nearly over, but if you’re willing to pay extra you can play early access right now.
It’s been a very bumpy road for the multiplayer game since its first proper reveal trailer earlier this year during State of Play. The open beta provided disappointing numbers , leading to the prejudice that the game is dead on arrival. The biggest opposition to the game appears to be its price, but the developer has announced that there will be no battle pass and you will unlock rewards by simply playing.
The reception to full launch of Concord will be very interesting to see as the open beta provided nothing but a bleak outlook. Those who played the beta swear that it is a lot of fun, and for those who enjoyed the game the release date and time countdown is almost over. Concord release date The release date for Concord is August 23rd .
This was confirmed during State of Play earlier this year back in May. If you are planning to play on PC, you should know that Sony has announced a PSN account is required . This was announced presumably to avoid the controversy that ensued with Helldivers 2.
Whether you plan to play on console or computer, the good news is that you will be able to engage in crossplay. This is fantastic news as cross platform action is now regarded as a must for multiplayer games. When does Concord come out? The release time for when Concord will come out is 10AM PT/1PM ET/6PM BST on August 23rd .
