Among the many questions observers had following this week's shock shutdown of PlayStation 5v5 shooter Concord (albeit not necessarily at the top of their list) was if the now-defunct live-service title would still make an appearance in Amazon's upcoming animated video game anthology series Secret Level - and the answer, according to a new report at least, is yes.
Secret Level, if you haven't been following along, is a 15-episode series from the creators of Love, Death & Robots that'll feature original stories set in the world of games. More specifically, it'll include episodes centred on Armored Core, Crossfire, Dungeons & Dragons, Exodus, Honor of Kings, Mega Man, New World: Aeternum, PAC-MAN, Sifu, Spelunky, The Outer Worlds, Unreal Tournament, Warhammer 40,000, and a number of PlayStation Studios games.
More pertinently, though, it was also due to include an episode based on Concord - a decision made well before the game was pulled from sale just two weeks after launch amid less-than-stellar player numbers. And while developer Firewalk Studios has suggested Concord may one day return, many wondered if its Secret Level episode would get the chop given it was essentially envisaged as an advert for a game that, currently at least, effectively no longer exists.

They don't have to elicit a ground-shaking reaction; it might simply be enough to make someone giggle with a wonderfully rubbish strapline - or to impress them with a genuinely clever one (have we ever had one of those?). Whatever it is we're trying to do - to inform you, to entertain you, to tell you a story - I think I speak for all of us here when I say there's a deep-seated hope it'll resonate enough to be memorable.
