Pretty sure Sony knows what is their best bet for savings on this closure.
Hypothetically if they don't have a timeline currently for whatever is next for the game, makes no sense to be keeping servers on?
Sony didn't condition their users to pay 60 bucks for a game that's 10 year old and just a simple port. Even harder to sell that to PC gamers. Just scale down the GaaS crap.
Are these the same "internal sources" that saw Redfall as an 8/10 game over at MS? I'm sure they were positive about Concord too, otherwise it would have been cancelled much sooner.PlayStation Studios |OT42| Hot Bot Summer Sony - OT

C'mon. You can't talk like that about devs. Game failed. They will find another way
you know what's even more profitable? focusing on PlayStation 5 and in games for the PlayStation 5

Since it appears those sales numbers are accurate or at least close to it, this was the smart decision. Shut down the game, refund everyone and then make Firewalk a support studio for whoever. I don't see this game coming back as a free to play with micro-transactions because the game wasn't designed around that so I don't see Sony doing this. A cheap experiment which was mostly crowdfunded anyway so minimal loss for Sony. Firewalk will be more of a long term gain as a support studio than anything else.
Yeah if they just released more games then they would attract more players to their platform instead of going to PC, they can take a risk on a WRPG or JRPG if they can take a risk on a turd burger like concord. They can contract external devs like Nintendo does, I will die on the hill that having most of the studios on the west coast along with SIE HQ is a mistake.
Outlaws will do decent enough numbers when all is said and done. Shadows though is going to be huge guaranteed because it's simply going to be a far better game than Outlaws and it's the first new Assassin's Creed main line game in four years plus it's in Japan. If it wasn't for Ubisoft+, I would be day one with the ultimate gold edition or whatever the hell it's called.
I hate f2p shit. The underhanded shit to scam and people will be delighted to consume it. We will feel that in the next few GaaS releases. I'd rather enjoy a game I know the price of than f2p and feel scammed the whole time playing. Absolute pity.
