Concord open beta dates confirmed for July
Players will have two opportunities to try out PlayStation’s newest shooter
Firewalk Studios has announced the dates of its upcoming open beta for Concord.
The Concord open beta will run from July 12 until July 14. Open beta early access will be available to those who pre-ordered any edition of Concord on either PS5 or PC.
Those who pre-ordered will also receive 4 additional codes for the Beta Early Access to share with friends.
Following this open beta early access, the beta will then be available for all players to play from July 18 until July 21. Both beta periods will run simultaneously on PS5 and PC with the option to enable cross-play across both platforms.
The beta will feature all 16 of the game’s launch characters, as well as cinematic vignettes that will explore the game’s narrative.
Concord’s Digital Deluxe Edition comes with three days of early access, 16 character skins, and a Monarch Pack.
The debut title from PlayStation’s Firewalk Studios will be released for PS5 and PC on August 23. Concord is a 5v5 team-based shooter, where players compete as ‘freegunners’ and have to take on opposing teams.
VGC recently got the chance to play three hours of Concord. In our preview, we praised the game’s gunplay, and unique delivery method for story in a live service game.
Firewalk has also confirmed the game’s plans for monetisation. In a UK exclusive video interview with VGC, Firewalk addressed the backlash to the game’s reveal trailer during PlayStation’s recent State of Play.
“Yeah, that trailer,” reflected Kim Kreines, Concord’s director of IP. “That moment is such a tiny slice of everything that we’ve been working on for years and years. We’re excited for the game and for the IP, and for the game to be in people’s hands.
