I assume, NMS made money from their launch, despite it being so underwhelming, and that's what they used to patch up the game.

Concord seems to have made essentially no money...

25K units sold TOTAL. 10 on steam, 15 on psn.

Some quick math, steam takes a 30% cut (10k * 40 * .7 = 280k), and since this is a sony published game sony got to keep 100% on their platform (15k * 40 = 600k). Sony made less than 1 mill in revenue on this game which allegedly cost 100M to develop.
