Concord was a genre-defining disaster for Sony, so has it caused PlayStation to rethink its entire live service approach?

Two games in development at Bend Studio and Bluepoint have apparently been canned.

It was recently reported that live service projects from Sony Interactive Entertainment‘s Bend Studio and Bluepoint Games were canceled. In a recent episode of podcast Game Mess Decides, industry insider Jeff Grubb claims Concord is to blame.

Sony has canceled two unannounced live service games. According to Bloomberg, a Sony spokesperson confirmed that they were canceled "following a recent review”. They were in development at two PlayStation studios, Bend Studio and Bluepoint Games.

A God of War live service game has just been killed by Sony, along with another live game from another studio.

Sony is said to be cancelling two PlayStation live service projects, and one of them is a live service God of War game.

PlayStation's entry into the live-service market has been rocky at best, last year scoring a big win with Helldivers 2 while also suffering a setback with the shockingly abrupt shutdown of the online first-person shooter Concord, which resulted in the closure of developer Firewalk Studios.

Sony PlayStation have cancelled two online multiplayer games, including one based on God Of War and one from Days Gone developers.

Sony's live service plans take another blow with the cancellation of two more previously announced games, with one title fans were hoping for.

According to Jeff Grubb, the high-profile failure of Concord has Sony reassessing all of its faltering live-service projects.

Sony’s live service woes are far from overs apparently, as the company has cancelled two more games, which were in development at Oregon-based Bend Studio and Texas-based BluePoint Games. The cancellations come courtesy of a report by Bloomberg,
