Concord is a 5v5 character-driven, first-person multiplayer shooter set within the Concord galaxy.

We constructed Concord as a love-letter to aspirational sci-fi journey, impressed by our favourite artwork, anime, movies, and TV collection. Mixed with our deep love of multiplayer, we’re devoted to creating these had-to-be-there, all the way down to the wire moments with your pals and creating a way of journey as you uncover extra in regards to the galaxy, the characters you play as, and the worlds you go to each time you log on.

Freegunners: They’re not heroes, they’re professionals

In Concord, you play because the crew of the Northstar—a bunch of guns-for-hire recognized in our galaxy as Freegunners.  The Freegunners roam the celebrities taking high-stakes jobs on worlds throughout Wild house, the place they face different fiercely aggressive Freegunner crews.

From the very starting, we wished to make a decent, well-balanced FPS that feels nice to play from the second you decide up the controller. 

Whereas our core gunplay will really feel acquainted to shooter followers, the flexibility and number of every Freegunner and their skills makes it so goal and thumbskill alone aren’t all the time sufficient to return out on high.  Every Freegunner’s skills are designed to make it in order that gamers of a variety of talent ranges and play types might be efficient—even these which might be new to the style—whereas offering extra problem and depth for these in search of high-stakes, high-sweat aggressive play.

From highly effective mystics and towering robots to expert gunslingers and snipers, we would like every Freegunner’s persona and gameplay skills to return alive in each component of how they play and the strategic concerns they create.

Others can have a permanent impression on a match, like deployable partitions that may block complete lanes, explosive traps, bullet-blocking domes, speed-granting spores, and extra that persist throughout rounds and respawns. 

Impressed by some our favourite combating and technique video games, all of those skills and mechanics come collectively to create a singular asymmetry to the characters and alternatives for improvisation that make each struggle and each match-up an opportunity for one thing totally different and surprising to occur.

Alongside attending to know the crew of the Northstar via gameplay, you’ll even have a possibility to see their tales unfold via cinematic vignettes that may premiere in-game, beginning weekly from launch. These temporary cinematic vignettes will characteristic ongoing narrative arcs that develop the characters’ tales, relationships, and unpack the broader Concord galaxy and life as a Freegunner.
