<p class="">With each of the Freegunners in Concord, our team has focused on taking a holistic approach to development by working across all disciplines–from gameplay design to narrative to art and beyond–to ensure that they’re not just fun and engaging to play, but that they feel like fully formed characters. From their core gameplay to the way they move and the performances of our cast, every detail is meant to feel like extensions of their personalities, backstories, and journey through the Concord galaxy.</p>
<p class="">This past weekend during the Open Beta and with the Early Access Beta earlier this month, you were able to experience a small slice of the game and each of our characters for the first time.</p>
<p class="">As we look ahead to launch in August, we’re excited to further unpack our launch roster of 16 playable Freegunners, including a limited animated series called Concord: Freegunner Adventures. The first episode drops today with Concord Freegunner Adventures: Crew First, which features Teo, Jabali, and It-Z taking a high-stakes job and going up against a rival crew: </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Introducing the DualSense Wireless Controller – Concord Limited Edition</h2>
<p class="">Additionally, we were excited to have the opportunity to collaborate with PlayStation to develop a special Concord-themed version of the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller, which features a custom design inspired by the vibrant and colorful universe of Concord. The design draws inspiration and graphic elements from our vision of faster than light travel and the Galactic Guide—a vast in-game map of the Concord galaxy and its worlds that expands and unlocks new narrative content as you play and progress.</p>
<p class="">The DualSense Wireless Controller – Concord Limited Edition will be available for players in the U.S. and available for pre-order on Thursday, July 25 at 7am PT / 10am ET on direct.playstation.com. It will be available in limited quantities in the U.S. only for $84.99 and will launch on August 23, day-in-date with the release of Concord.*</p>
