I don’t know how they expected to succeed without any marketing. I hadn’t seen hide nor hair of this game, even on my PS5 (where they usually advertise the absolute hell out of a 1st party title like this), until the day it released.
Or how their game being just another hero shooter/moba crossover in a sea of such games would differentiate itself enough to warrant also costing $40 instead of being like its competition which is FREE.
I legit learned of it around when it released from gamingcirclejerk making fun of chuds for calling it woke or whatever. Next time I heard of it, it was the shut down announcement.
They didn’t want to pay for marketing. But all this news coverage… Didn’t they already say they’d rerelease it after an overhaul? I guarantee a non-insignificant amount of people will buy it just to see what all the fuss was about…
I saw this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBnStS9d2xg) nearly 5 minute cinematic trailer in June and was expecting some kind of action/adventure game for most of the way through. Then they said it was a hero shooter out of nowhere and I thought to myself “don’t we already have plenty of those?”

I first heard of it with the shutdown announcement
Granted, I don’t own a PS5

People keep saying thia, but there’s really only 2 of any worth. Overwatch and Paladins.
Where is this ocean of games?
Smite. Apex Legends. Team Fortress 2. Valorant. Rainbow Six Siege.
And these are just the popular ones.
I think The Finals is one as well?
And Deadlock is taking off. It “launched” (if you can call it that) sometime between when Concord released and when Concord was retracted.
