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 re-release 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 It “launched” (if you can call it that) sometime between when Concord released and when Concord was retracted.
