Concord, the upcoming 5v5 hero shooter from Sony’s Firewalk Studios, is bucking the battle pass trend, with its developer telling players, “You own Concord, Concord doesn’t own you.”
Firewalk Studios announced the news in a series of posts on social media, explaining Concord won’t have a battle pass because it “wanted to focus [its] attention on making Concord a rewarding and robust experience on day one, where just playing the game, levelling up your accounts and characters, and completing jobs yields meaningful rewards.”
In a seperate post, Concord gameplay animation director Mark DeRidder wrote, “No Battle Pass, folks. You own Concord, Concord doesn’t own you.”
