Anthem is the most ambitious game BioWare has ever attempted to put together. The studio, responsible for crafting the legendary Mass Effect and Dragon Age universes – along with a host of seminal RPGs such as Baldur’s Gate, Neverwinter Nights, and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – is attempting to deliver an online-only action-RPG, one that is designed to expand and evolve in real time for years into the future. Bioware's Anthem game is indeed ambitious, but that isn’t to sayಌ it hasn’t invited its fair share on controversy.
In fact, many are wondering whether Anthem is destined to be a make or break moment for BioWare. There are questions being asked of EA too, like, is now really the best time for this particular publisher to be launching a live-service looter shooter? Perhaps the reason that questions continue to be raised is because both developer and publisher are now embattled institutions. BioWare is looking to course correct after a salvo of Mass Effect-related controversies, the studio’s reputation bruised after concerns from the community stretched out into the stratosphere. Meanwhile, EA is desperately searching for a way out of the storm it managed to successfully steer itself into with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: Battlefront 2, the contentious microt𝔍ransaction p🐽olicies still reviled by the millions that were merely eager to play in a galaxy far, far away.
With Anthem set to launch on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on ๊22 February, 2019, BioWare and EA are ready to enter uncharted territory. That’s why, over the next two weeks, GamesRadar is going to be doing its damndest to answer these questions – and any more that you may have about the game – as we take a deep dive into the areas of Anthem that matter the most. Welcome to On The Radar: The home for in-depth conversations around the world's biggest games.
For BioWare and EA, Anthem i💎s a leap of faith. We don’t yet know whether Anthem is going to be a make or break experience for BioWare, but one thing is for certain: We are all better off having joined the studio on this exciting journey into the unknown. —Josh West, Features Editor

Anthem preview: Hands-on impressions of the opening few hours
Anthem has echoes of Mass Effeꩲct and Destin꧟y, but we fear that it could lack its own identity.
That was our impression of the opening few hours of Anthem but, as you might imagine, there's still plenty more of it to see and experience. Still, this hands-on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Anthem game preview should give you an idea of what to exp🥀ect when you first boot up the game.
Anthem endgame preview: Hands-on with the combat experience at max level
Endgame content is hugely important for any 'living' game, as hardcore players will leave in droves if they get bored at max level. Judging by our recent hands-on demo for our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Anthem endgame preview, Anthem's endgame seems 🐓to have more in common with Diablo 3 than Destiny.
Instead of grandiose raids and new enemy types, we faced a lot of encounters that felt distressingly similar to the opening hours, just with baddies that had way more HP. But Cataclysms, the seasonal events planned for post-launch Anthem, could be♚ the sa🔯ving grace for the endgame.
