What's Concord? I've literally never heard of this before

Spoiler: if you don't advertise at all, people won't play your game

Yeah, hadn't heard about it until today either. But Steam also kind of torpedoed their launch by lifting their NDA for Deadlock on the same day. Not sure how similar they are, but that'll grab most of the attention from gamers right now.

Both have heroes and are shooters, but the similarities end here, but you're overall right. From what I've seen of concord, it's just valorant with a mediocre twist, whereas deadlock has been my go-to game for the last week.

Concord is nothing like Valorant. The gameplay isn't even remotely similar.

Yeah valorant is basically counterstrike with heroes, concord is overwatch but somehow even more boring.
