PlayStation enthusiasts, get ready to hone your Freegunner skills! PlayStation has announced that the early access beta for “Concord,” a new 5v5 shooter game, will be available starting July 2024. This exciting news came via a tweet from the official PlayStation Twitter account, inviting players to pre-order the game to unlock special bonuses and early access.
“Concord” is an upcoming first-person shooter (FPS) from Firewalk Studios, known for their innovative multiplayer experiences. The game features dynamic and strategic 5v5 battles in a vibrant sci-fi universe. Players take on the role of “Freegunners,” a diverse group of characters, each with unique abilities and playstyles.
The developers aim to cater to both newcomers and seasoned players. Each Freegunner is designed to offer varied tactical options, ensuring that the gameplay remains engaging and challenging. Some characters can deploy walls of fire or explosive traps, while others have abilities that influence the match’s long-term strategy, such as bullet-blocking domes and deployable walls.
The beta, starting in July, is open to those who pre-order the game. Pre-ordering not only grants early access but also comes with five beta access codes, allowing you to invite four friends to join the test period. This collaborative feature is intended to help players explore the game’s team dynamics before its official release.
“Concord” is set for a full release on August 23, 2024, for both PS5 and PC. The game promises to deliver a rich, evolving narrative through weekly cinematic vignettes that delve into the backstories of the characters and the broader universe.
The game first garnered attention during the PlayStation May 2024 State of Play event, where a gameplay trailer and a character vignette were showcased. These revealed the game’s distinct art style and engaging mechanics, drawing comparisons to popular titles like “Overwatch” and “Guardians of the Galaxy”
In “Concord,” players will participate in daring space heists across various planets, each offering unique and fantastical maps. The game features six different online PvP modes, providing a variety of ways to engage with the content. Firewalk Studios has emphasized the importance of creating a balanced and enjoyable experience for all players, regardless of their skill level.
The anticipation for “Concord” is building, and the early access beta provides a great opportunity for players to get a taste of the action before the official launch. For those eager to jump in, pre-orders are available starting June 6, 2024. Be sure to secure your spot and prepare to team up with friends for an exciting adventure in the Concord galaxy.
