The Canadian study explains that an expansion is not enough and that they will focus their attention on relaunching the product.
BioWare turns 25 and does so confirming that his plans regarding Anthem go through redoing the core of his playable experience. This information coincides with that advanced by Kotaku, which pointed out that the Canadian study intended to do something similar to what Square Enix did with Final Fantasy: A Realm Reborn. Casey Hudson, general manager of the company, has been in charge of communicating the roadmap through the official BioWare blog.
"Over the past year, the team has worked hard to improve the stability, performance and quality of life" of the video game, said the creative. However, they have heard the feedback and comments that Anthem "needed a more satisfying loot experience, better long-term progression and a better endgame." Therefore, "we recognize that there is an important work to be done", so that they will need a "substantial reinvention" that will go beyond a mere update or expansion.

A full-fledged relaunch
“Over the next few months, we will be focused on redesigning the long-term experience, specifically working on reinventing the main gameplay with clear objectives, motivating challenges and progression with quality rewards, while preserving the fun of flying and fighting in a vast location of science fiction. ” So that what happened with the original version is not repeated, the study will have a team that will control the quality of the product.
Meanwhile, the well-known version of Anthem will continue to work, but all teams will be focused on improving the product, so that beyond the events and past seasons, there will be no more movement. “Creating new worlds is central to study, but it is not easy. What keeps us is the support of players like you. Hudson has thanked all the feedback received by users.
Anthem is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The game went on sale with many problems in the servers and in the playable structure.
