It’s fair to say that Concord is one of the biggest flops in recent gaming history, with the hero shooter shutting down after just two weeks of existence. However, despite that, it seems that the game will live on through a side story in Prime Video’s video-game-themed TV show Secret Level, which releases on December 10.
Announced back in August during Gamescom, Secret Level is an anthology series that will feature animated short stories set in the world of various games and gaming franchises, including God of War, The Outer Worlds 2, and Warhammer 40K. Concord was announced as one of the 15 franchises involved in the project, and a source told IGN that the game will remain a part of Secret Level.
Secret Level will also feature new stories in franchises that haven’t seen a fresh entry in some time, such as Mega Man and Unreal Tournament. A brief moment in the trailer led us to think that Keanu Reeves might star in the Armored Core episode, but that hasn’t been confirmed yet. The John Wick star was recently revealed as the voice of Shadow in Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
The future of Concord remains unclear, with one of the developers of the game outright stating that “none of us know what’s next.” Prior to the game’s shutdown on September 6, reports suggested that players were killing themselves in the game on purpose to try to gain the platinum trophy before the curtain fell.
