REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:EA) gave the world its first look at Anthem ™, the brand-new IP being created by BioWare. Anthem is a shared-world action-RPG, where players can delve into a vast world teeming with amazing technology and forgotten treasures. The world is also filled with savage beasts and ruthless marauders where Freelancers are called to defeat the forces plotting to conquer humanity.

“Our developers at BioWare have been creating something special," said Patrick Soderlund, Executive Vice President of EA Worldwide Studios. “We’re pushing Frostbite to new heights, developing a game unlike anything EA has ever made before. We’re telling a new story, creating a social, co-operative experience, and putting it in a contiguous open world that is dynamic and will be ever-changing for years to come."

In Anthem, up to four friends can unravel the world’s mysteries and take on its most fearsome challenges together. Shared danger means shared glory, and successful Freelancers will all be richly rewarded for successful exploits. Throughout their adventure, players can outfit their Freelancers with powerful Javelin exosuits, each of which are equipped with unique weapons and abilities. Players can also customize their Javelin with gear they earn and craft throughout the adventure, and leave a lasting mark on the world.

[VoltrefferNL]

Looks amazing!

 

[Htown]

Xenoblade Chronicles X but a shooter.

Fuck it, sounds good.

 

[Canucked]

Sold on this. Can't wait.

 

[immortald3ath]

Best looking game ive seen.

 

[sgs2008]

that looked a bit too good visually, hard to belive it'll look liek that

 

[Alienous]

Yeah, this looks phenomenal.

 

[-Deimos]

Sold.

 

[K' Dash]

This looks like what I expected from Destiny, looks amazing.

 

[aeolist]

"gameplay"

 

[Auctopus]

Very pretty, love the deep underwater stuff.

Cautious about the world size/layout seeing as it might be very Destiny-esque.

 

[T.O.P]

My "next-gen moment" right there

Incredibly good looking and that exploration nghhhh

 

[Courage]

That looked... insane.

 

[Geist-]

I'm actually pretty fucking hyped now. I'll wait until the first beta to preorder, but I might have found something to pull me away from Destiny.

 

[MadLaughter]

"What if Destiny actually looked cool."

 

[Omega Kirby]

All the doubters yesterday.

 

[_Aaron_]

Ye looks incredibly. Completely different league to ME: Andromeda.

 

[DataGhost]

It's blocked for me.

It reminds me of Destiny, but being able to fly makes me want to explore the world.

 

[Permanently A]

Copyright blocked for me.

 

[Noirulus]

Finally Destiny gets a competitor. Maybe it'll light a fire under bungie's ass.

 

[Fat4all]

The visuals are fantastic

I hope the gameplay loop holds up

 

[edbooneyebrows]

Nothing about this "anthem" game is looking any original from gameplay point. generic ass shit but GAF will love it because graphics i guess

i am old or i dont get this trends.

 

[Mattakuevan]

This looks real good. Hopefully it has gameplay systems to match.

 

[RulkezX]

Looks legit incredible

 

[RinNowaru]

Insta copyright flagged lol

 

[LastOne2100]

This looked like Destiny, but way better than Destiny.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

yeah, that looked fucking insane

 

[Kinsei]

The visuals are great but the gameplay looks eh.

I figured it would be safe to assume this would be a single player game since it's from Bioware. Guess I was wrong.

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

That looks amazing. Take your time. Don't fuck this up.

 

[Zukkoyaki]

Looks like Andromeda if it were good mixed with what Destiny was originally pitched as.

 

[HelloMeow]

This looks great. Lots of room for downgrades

 

[JimmyRustler]

Looked amazing. Wonder if you'll be able to play it solo though. Looks very MP centric.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

I wish I cared about these types of games, because that looked pretty impressive.

 

[Lime]

Nice vertical slice, but I doubt it'll end up looking like this come release.

Is there any major narrative singleplayer component in this at all? And honestly I prefer the tactics of squadmates in Mass Effect than a multiplayer squad shooter.

 

[i-Lo]

If nothing else, the game looks gorgeous!

 

[Truant]

Yeah, this is what I hoped Destiny 2 would be.

 

[Atilac]

I look forward to the future crowbcat video comparing graphics with the final release.

 

[Loris146]

Looks amazing.

 

[ZeroX03]

This looks like what I expected from Destiny, looks amazing.

Came to say this lol, it's what I wished Destiny was.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Bioware came swinging at destiny. And maybe it can be good. Lord knows that was impressive.

 

[xviper]

sure it looks amazing, but the gameplay looks as boring and horrible as Mass Effect

 

[SkyOdin]

The world looks a lot like Primordia in Xenoblade X, with a couple of Oblivia's rings for good measure.

 

[Firenze1]

that looked a bit too good visually, hard to belive it'll look liek that

frostbite

 

[Hubbl3]

I want this game so bad

 

[Twilight Gap]

goodbye destiny

 

[Forerunner]

This shit looked fucking good.

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

I'll be playing it on PC, but seems tough to top for game of the show

 

[Nabbis]

Looks promising, assuming they can deliver on the visuals. Same goes for combat. Certainly something i can get into if they can properly make it. At least i can expect a story in this game.

 

[King Kovu]

This is what I wanted Destiny to be like.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Iron Man Destiny Horizon.

But it looks legit.
