Concord Players Make a Mad Dash for Platinum Before the Game Dies
Video game failures are not anything new. Whether it’s a AAA attempt or an indie darling failing to meet expectations, we have seen it all in this industry. However, I’ve never seen a huge disaster like Concord and its wannabe AAA live-service shooter dreams. I’ve already talked about why Concord couldn’t find any players.
On September 3, 2024, we learned that Sony is preparing to shut down Concord due to the utterly poor response. Amidst this chaos, there is one thing the limited number of players are doing that caught my attention, and it is hilarious.
It turns out that several Concord players are grinding for the Platinum trophy in their PSN account. Although that is one of the achievements players love to have, Concord’s situation is funny.
For those unaware, you can get the Platinum trophy after finishing the game or completing certain objectives. While getting platinum was already hard in Concord due to the lack of players making it hard to find a match, someone ended up getting the trophy.
