Initially, Concord sold for $39.99 at retail, but after the heroic shooter’s closure, prices for «sealed» copies skyrocketed.
PlayStation and Firewalk Studios announced the closure of Concord only 2 weeks after launch — the reason was negative feedback and extremely low popularity with a peak of 697 simultaneous players.
The Concord servers will be shut down tomorrow, September 6, while players who purchased Concord from digital stores for PlayStation 5 or PC will receive a full refund. Owners of physical versions were offered to apply for a refund directly to retailers, but some decided to make money on the situation by selling the game as a kind of exclusive.
Currently, physical editions of Concord are being sold on eBay for a fabulous amount of money — considering the original retail price of $39.99. Editions playstationlifestyle checked the store search results for «Concord PS5» and saw about 59 offers. Most of the copies are selling for $100-200, while one, the most arrogant seller, offered a price of $25,000.
The cost of the Concord PS5 DualSense themed controller has also increased from $160 to $400.
