Until Dawn Reportedly Launched With Fewer PS5 Players Than Concord

According to a recent report from TrueTrophies, which cites sample data from 3.1 million PSN accounts, Until Dawn had 28 percent less players than Concord. Despite Concord’s unfortunate launch, it seems Until Dawn is still performing worse currently. According to the report, “the PlayStation Studios horror game saw 98.5% fewer players than The Last Of Us Part 2 Remastered.”

Sony and developer Firewalk Studios announced that Concord will officially go offline on September 6 less than a month since the game officially launched on August 23. The publisher stated it will use this to “determine the best path ahead”. Concord launched for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store to just 697 concurrent Steam players. The game is also rumored to have only sold about 25,000 units across both platforms.

Until Dawn remake launched on October 4 for PlayStation 5 and PC. According to Sony, the remake enhances the visual storytelling. The visuals have been rebuilt from the ground up using the Unreal Engine 5. It also has updated character models, environments, interactable props, visual effects, and animations, “all designed to maximize the Until Dawn experience on both PlayStation 5 and PC.” Additionally, the remake will also have a reworked prologue with “some adjustments to its narrative pacing,” as well as new collectibles, customizable settings, and more.

 

Until Dawn details via the publisher:
