After years of waiting, we are in the final stretch for the release of Anthem, the next online action RPG from Bioware. Before that could happen, Bioware is giving a chance for players to experience what Anthem is all about, and to step into it before launch, to decide for themselves whether its a game they like enough to warrant a purchase.

 

 

Different Demos

Anthem will have two Demos, a VIP Demo, and Open Demo.

 

Anthem's VIP Demo will run from Jan 25th till Jan 27th, and will be restricted to players who per-ordered the game, or are subscribers of EA Access/Origin Access programs. This Demo is over now.

 

The Open Demo is available for preload , and is approx 30GB in size.

The Open Demo will start on February 1st, at 9:01 AM PDT (12:01 PM EDT)
The Open Demo will end on February 3rd, at 6:00 PM PDT (9:00 PM EDT)

 

 

 

 

Demo Contents

The Demo will encompass slices of the game, to allow the player to experience what it has to offer. This includes a story mission, free play, and a stronghold to test out. Players will also be able to explore Fort Tarsis, and play around in the Forge, Anthem special "customs shop". Players will be able to play as much as they want, and experience a good slice of the game and what it has to offer, as XP and earnings were tweaked to favor the faster pace of the demo.

 

Players will begin with a Ranger Javelin in the Demo, and allowed to pick 1 other javelin from the remaining pool of 3, so pick wisely freelancers.

 

 

 

 

F.A.Q.

 

How big is the Demo?

30GB

How much can I play?

As much as you can.

 

Can I play the VIP Demo and the Open Demo?

Yes

 

Does progress in the Demo carry over to the full game?

No, it does not. It does however carry from the VIP Demo to the Open Demo.

 

Where can I get access to the Demo?

The Open Demo is...Open. For anyone with access to PS4, Xbox One or PC.

 

You mean Beta right?

Nope. This is an actual Demo. Old School Baby. It is closest thing you will get to the full game in February, and is meant to showcase it. It will be a bit outdated, and slightly modified to fit its time cycle.

 

Outdated? Modified??

Economy will be tweaked to suit the smaller scale, and to allow players to purchase and see cosmetics. XP Gains as well, as well as being 6 weeks behind in bug fixes. And no, no MTX will be present in the demo.

 

 

We will be releasing a document allowing easy understanding of Anthem and all its components close to launch. Stay tuned for that.

 

As always, if you are interested in seeing this game in TAW, please fill out the Vanguard Interest Form

 

For now, be safe out there freelancers, and hope to see many of you in Fort Tarsis and beyond!

Oh no! Hopefully you can get in right at launch at least! I have the Origin Premier annual subscription. I feel like I already am getting my money's worth on Battlefield V, so Anthem will hopefully be a very nice bonus.
