Anthem is a forthcoming game from Bioware, using the Frostbite engine where the hostile world has threats around every corner. Plus, it looks rather like Halo.
It will be an online-only multiplayer third-person shooter where players will equip exosuits known as “Javelins” when they explore the outside worlds and all that it has to offer. Javelins offer the pilot of it superhuman strength as well as other enhanced abilities. There are different classes of Javelins that the you can obtain, and will be able to own multiple Javelins. So far the only known classes of Javelins are the Ranger class and the Colossus class Javelin.
Another gameplay feature of the video is Shaper Storms, which take players to other parts of the world where they can explore more story elements. You’ll also be able to join three other players and their Javelins in your adventures outside of the wall.
Anthem is released in Autumn 2018 on PC (Windows 10) and is a console exclusive to Xbox One, so out of the Xbox One family, it will be formatted to look best on Xbox One X with 4K HDR graphics.
