One of 2019’s most anticipated games will be shown off in a big way next week, as EA and BioWare have begun teasing what’s to come for Anthem at E3.
Originally revealed at last year’s E3, Anthem is a third-person action RPG from the developers of games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. It was soon announced that the game would be coming in early 2019, but the developer is ready to show more at EA Play next weekend on June 9.
EA says that June 9 will feature a new trailer “that delves into the dangerous world of Anthem. You’ll get a glimpse into the story, characters, and monsters that bring the game to life.”
On top of that, there will be more gameplay to showcase things like flying, fighting, and collecting loot. The stars of the gameplay, the Javelin exosuits, will also “be on full display as players take on the most ferocious enemies seen yet.”
BioWare developers will also be on hand. General manager Casey Hudson, executive producer Mark Darrah, and lead writer Cathleen Rootsaert will take the stage to talk about the guiding principles that have shaped the development of the game.
After the downfall of the Mass Effect series and its disappointment in sales and in the eyes of fans, both EA and BioWare need Anthem to be a hit. As EA Play takes place before the whirlwind of news that is E3, all eyes will be on the event next Saturday.
It all begins on June 9 at 1pm CT, where the publisher shows off all of its biggest upcoming titles.
