What is Anthem?
For those of you unfamiliar with Anthem, it is currently being developed by BioWare and will take the form of an online multiplayer action role-playing game. In Anthem, you assume the role of a Freelancer, one of a group of people who leave their civilization to explore the surrounding landscape. The game is set in a visually stunning, dynamic world filled with lush environments, dangerous creatures, and mysterious ruins. Players will have the opportunity to pilot powerful exosuits called Javelins, each with unique abilities and customization options.
Gameplay Mechanics and Features
Anthem promises to deliver a rich and immersive gameplay experience. The game will feature a combination of third-person shooting and action RPG elements. Players can team up in squads of up to four to tackle various missions and challenges. The Javelins, which are central to the gameplay, come in different classes such as the Ranger, Colossus, Storm, and Interceptor. Each class offers distinct playstyles and abilities, allowing players to choose the one that best suits their preferences.
The game world is designed to be dynamic and ever-changing, with weather effects and day-night cycles that impact gameplay. Players will encounter a variety of enemies, from hostile wildlife to formidable factions, each requiring different strategies to defeat. Additionally, Anthem will feature a strong narrative component, with BioWare’s signature storytelling and character development.
EA is hoping to launch the multiplayer role-playing game on February 22nd, 2019, if all goes well in the final stages of development. For more information, jump over to the official Anthem game website by following the link below.
