The story of Concord is a cautionary tale in the age of live-service games. Years of development and millions of dollars went into the game, only for it to fail at launch and get canceled by Sony weeks later. However, Conord had some fans, and a trio of them worked very hard to bring the game back to life on a server.
As reported by The Game Post, Concord’s partial resurrection is due to reverse engineering by a user called Red, a rebuild of the game’s backend API by open_wizard, and an additional assist from a programmer called gwog. The team shared a pair of a gameplay videos to demonstrate their achievement, but noted that Concord is still somewhat buggy.
The trio successfully tested their ability to load the game, pick their characters, and run a full Clash Point match.
