How to preload Concord

With the Concord galaxy set to open its doors to the fandom soon, you certainly aren’t the only one wondering how to preload the hotly anticipated game before launch. Don’t worry—we’ve compiled all the information you need below.

If fielding a team of “Freegunners,” handpicked from a group of powerful guns-for-hire outlaws, for a challenging yet fun team-based FPS experience sounds like your thing, you’ll love what Firewalk Studios has to offer with Concord. It’s currently up for pre-purchase via Steam and PlayStation Store and will be playable on PC and PS5 once it launches. 

If you aren’t sure how to preload Concord on your platform, here’s everything you need to know. 

Concord preload guide: How to pre-download it before launch

The pre-download update for all versions of Concord on PS5 went live on Aug. 13. If you’ve pre-purchased the game from the PlayStation Store, you can now preload the update. 

To preload Concord, go to your PlayStation games library and check if there’s an available update. If you’re pre-ordering it now, you should see an option to download it right after you purchase it.

Make sure you have at least 40GB of free space for the update. If you have auto-download enabled, your console has likely completed preloading the game on its own—check your library to confirm. 

Unfortunately, players on PC don’t have the preload privilege, unlike their PlayStation counterparts. So, if you have pre-ordered Concord via Steam, you’d have to wait for the official launch—scheduled for Aug. 23—or early access to load it into your rig. 

Thankfully, regardless of platform, players who buy the Digital Deluxe Edition of Concord are eligible for a three-day early access experience starting Aug. 20.
