Neon Koi was developing a mobile action game. Firewalk Studios recently launched and quickly delisted Concord.
I was wondering why people were leaving the offices today ask solemn. Turned out the 2 floors above me were leased by firewalk. More room for the other gaming studio we’re building out who was sub leasing them I guess.
The Titanic was $200m. These mofos sank two.
A dumpster fire of a situation. 8 years of development, $400 million reported budget, game shut down after 2 weeks and now the studio closed.
AAA gaming is a hot mess right now.
Both the development time and the budget have come in at a variety of different numbers with people refuting them, and I’ll bet several of those figures depend on how you count. The range is now somewhere between 4-10 years, and $50-$400M, which is an absurd amount of variance, but even at 4 years and $50M, it’s still probably too long and too much money to spend on a game that you don’t know is going to find a substantial audience.
Concord/Firewalk is gonna be a running joke for years to come
I guess Concord isn’t coming back as free-to-play then.
If it did, it would have just been throwing good money after bad.
Damn and I thought lawbreakers was bad
Lawbreakers was at least a good game.
