Find Your Place in Anthem’s World at PAX West 2018
Discover how the Anthem dev team is creating a personal role-playing adventure in a co-op game.
The world of Anthem™ is big, dangerous, and full of Freelancers ready to take on anything its most vicious inhabitants have to throw at them. But through all the battles, there’s one thing that shouldn’t be lost: you, and your individual story. The Anthem team is ready to tell you just how these different stories will work together at their PAX West 2018 panel.
“In the dynamic [and co-op focused] open world, everything is experienced in real-time by all Anthem players – day/night, weather, and world-scale events that shape the ongoing narrative of the setting. This is ‘our world,’ which we share as a player community,” BioWare General Manager Casey Hudson wrote in a recent studio update. “Then when you return to Fort Tarsis, that’s actually a single-player experience, and it’s where you spend time developing relationships, making choices, and seeing consequences. That’s the ‘my story’ part.” But that’s just the beginning, and the people creating this vast world are ready to pull back the curtain and answer your questions at PAX West 2018: “Even with that description, I know there are many more questions about how it will work. To really go deep on this subject, we’ll be doing a panel at PAX where we’ll talk about ‘our world, my story’ and other big questions you’ve had about Anthem.” The following panelists will be there to give you all the details:
- Host: Nick Tarabay
- Mark Darrah, Executive Producer
- Mike Gamble, Lead Producer
- Sabine Rosgren, Level Designer
- Cathleen Rootsaert, Lead Writer
- Victor Krengel, Level Design Director
Check out the panel on Saturday, September 1 at 1:30 p.m. PT. You can watch live from home on the PAX West Twitch channel, or head to the Main Theatre at Benaroya Hall to get in on the action in person (PAX West badge required). Can't make it to the panel?
