The developers of Anthem believe that your shooter is more fun when played with other players. Therefore, there will be matchmaking for all activities.
What is it about? BioWare has commented several times on matchmaking in Anthem. It has been confirmed, that there will be a group search for the strongholds. These fortresses are supposed to provide you with particularly challenging adversaries that cannot be tackled alone.
Over Twitter, the Lead Producer of Anthem, Ben Irving, announced that there will be matchmaking for all activities in the game.
Do I have to play with matchmaking? According to Irving, matchmaking in Anthem is enabled by default. Instead of playing with a group of random players, activities can also be undertaken with your own friends.
Those who prefer to play alone or need a special challenge can also completely forgo additional players. However, the developers are convinced, that Anthem will be more fun with other players.
What activities are there? So far, the activities Freeplay and Strongholds have been presented.

In Freeplay, players will be able to explore the game world in a group or alone. Players can take on world quests and expeditions or defeat bosses during special events. Players interact with the environment and can dive into lakes, explore caves, or fly through waterfalls to cool down their Javelins.
What Freeplay looks like was recently shown in a video.
Strongholds are somewhat like the dungeons of Anthem and offer different locations with multiple mission objectives. Enemies are particularly tough, which is why strongholds must be tackled with a group. At the end of the dungeon, a boss awaits you.
In a stream, the strongholds were recently presented in detail:
