Today during EA’s E3 2017 briefing, the company officially announced BioWare’s new IP, called Anthem. The first trailer revealed that it’s a sci-fi game involving some kind of wall that keeps people safe from evil that lies beyond.
EA CEO Andrew Wilson said of the game: “We are very pleased with the progress of our new action IP from BioWare. The design is stunning. Gameplay mechanics are excellent. And the action will be exhilarating. The game is built around a live service, and through our creative process, we’ve decided to add more to the disruptive new social designs for our players. To accommodate that, we are moving the launch date for this project into fiscal year ’19.”
Details are scant for now about Anthem, which appears to be set in a futuristic world. It’s a brand new property for BioWare. Known previously by the codename “Dylan,” the game has been rumored to be in development for years.
A full length trailer will be shown tomorrow at Microsoft’s E3 event.
