The planned Anthem live stream for the new Stronghold has been postponed. The upcoming content is now set to be shown next week.
This was to be shown: BioWare had announced a new developer stream for April 17. At around 10 PM German time, Ben Irving, the Lead Producer of Anthem, was supposed to present the new Stronghold The Sunken Cell live with a special guest.
About the fourth Stronghold, which is set to be released in April along with other features, nothing is known yet except for the name. The details of the Stronghold were supposed to be revealed in the live stream.

Community Manager Jesse Anderson further explained that an internet line had been cut in front of the building where BioWare and the streaming studio are located. Although there was still a backup line available for such moments, the stream would freeze every time they tested it.
What are the players saying? On Twitter and in the Anthem subreddit, there was criticism for the postponement. While some players were satisfied with BioWare’s explanation, others complained or poked fun at the situation with memes.
Many wished that BioWare would at least record and publish a video with the new content. Other players would also be satisfied if the studio could post the planned patch notes for the April update.
Currently, Anthem is looking for new employees:
