After the launch, BioWare has announced the first updates for Anthem. With a detailed roadmap, they aim to tackle the negative reviews.
This is what Bioware says: At the launch of Anthem on February 22, the head of Live Service, Chad Robertson, addressed the players in a blog post. He and his team are very excited but also a little concerned.
Through early access, they realized that they have to improve a lot about Anthem. Therefore, the live team will continue to pay close attention to community feedback. They have already implemented some improvements with the Day-One patch.
With a detailed roadmap, BioWare aims to convince players of Anthem. The roadmap outlines the plan for the next three months of Anthem.
Robertson emphasizes in the blog post that they have just begun. BioWare fully supports the “live service” concept of Anthem and a long-term future – they have big visions for the game; the launch is an important step, but only the first one.
The specialized press has so far expressed mixed feelings about the action RPG, as the reviews on Metacritic for Anthem show.
