It also peaked at 70k players on release day. Not anything like Concord's awful release, but also not good for a worldwide release of a 10 year development AAA game. We'll see what happens over the first weekend, but given that it currently has 38k playing while the Monster Hunter Wilds beta test has 319k playing I don't think the sales numbers are going to be all that hot.
Concord was a new IP in a dead end genre. Its woke nonsense didn't help, but it likely would have failed without it. Just like Battleborn and Lawbreakers and all the others before it, that at least had the sense to come out when the iron was hot.
People seeking another Concord will be disappointed almost everytime because its unique in its cataclysm. Its like the guys on /v/ that need every single game to be another TORtanic.
