Neon Koi was developing a mobile action game. Firewalk Studios recently launched and quickly delisted Concord.

I guess Concord isn't coming back as free-to-play then.

If it did, it would have just been throwing good money after bad.

But isn't it featured in the list of games being given a short film via Secret Level? I kind of assumed the goal was to promote it via that episode and re-release the game around the same time.

Nothing to say they won't - it's actually pretty uncommon for the studio developing a live service to be the one supporting/maintaining it long term.

Fewer than 700 concurrent players means that they probably weren't making enough money to keep the servers running, let alone bug fixes, or even development.
