Forget Dragon Age and Mass Effect 5 for a minute, this Anthem dev would "love" another shot at BioWare's doomed co-op game
The live service flop still has fans out there

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dragon Age: The Veilguard and, to a lesser extent, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mass Effect 5 might be front and centre in everyone's minds right n🌄o⛎w, but Anthem's lead producer would "love" to return to the studio's failed live service game.
In hindsight, Anthem's doomed release should have been obvious to everyone involved. Some BioWare fans were already trepidatious about the storied RPG studio pivoting into live service, co-op focused, looter shooter territory with a game that had way more in common with Destiny than Mass Effect. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Reports of a troubled development raised m💎ore eyebrows. And then, of course, the game itself launched with long load times, technical troubles, and divisive combat involving you and other exosuited Iron Man-y friends saving a lush alien planet.
Whatever crowd the game attracted on release day didn't last too long, prompting the studio to go back to the drawing board with a massive update, re-release thingy tentatively called 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Anthem Next, which 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:publisher EA eventually shot down so BioWare could💛 make safer hits with sequels to Dragon Age and Ma🃏ss Effect.
So, yes. Anthem is in the rear view mirror for the studio that's continuing to work on the same two series it🤡 created two console generations ago. But that doesn't mean Anthem's been co🐻mpletely forgotten, either.
Ben Irving, who worked as the co-op shooter's lead producer and has since left to join Tomb Raider stewards Crystal Dynamics, recently that he'd "love to reboot Anthem one day" in response to an online fan who was still blasting alien mechs in the game. "It's amazing how many people are still so enꦚthusiastic about Anthem so many years later," he later . "Anthem 🌄still has all the potential in the world..."
