Prime Video’s upcoming video game anthology TV series Secret Level features an episode dedicated to Sony’s ill-fated multiplayer shooter, Concord. Series creator Tim Miller reflected on the game’s struggles in an interview, saying he can’t wrap his head around why the game didn’t succeed. He also discussed how the Concord episode of Secret Level “turned out really well.”
“There was no nicer, more invested group of developers than the team on Concord,” he told Rolling Stone. “I honestly don’t understand why it didn’t work. I know that they were trying to do the best they could, and they were a talented group of artists, so I feel terrible for that.”
Secret Level’s Concord episode could be the last time Concord appears anywhere in an official capacity, and if that’s the case, Miller said he’s happy with the episode his team made.
“I don’t feel bad that it’s a part of the show, because I think it’s an episode that turned out really well, and you can kind of see the potential of this world and the characters,” he said. “If it’s the remaining vestige of that product, I hope the developers feel that it’s in some way worthy, just a little bit, of the blood, sweat, and tears they put into it.”
Secret Level is an anthology series similar to Miller’s previous show, Love, Death & Robots. There are 15 episodes in all, including installments based on franchises like Mega Man, Pac-Man, The Outer Worlds, and PlayStation in general. The series premieres December 10 on Prime Video. The episodes feature the voices of Keanu Reeves, Arnold and Patrick Schwarzenegger, Gabriel Luna, Claudia Doumit, and Merle Dandridge, among others.
Concord launched in August for PlayStation and PC, but it failed to find an audience and Sony made the dramatic decision to shut the game down and offer refunds. Its developer, Firewalk, has since closed. Going forward, Sony’s management has said it has implemented new procedures to help ensure something like this doesn’t happen again.
