Anthem will be supplied with story content for a long time. There are clear boundaries between multiplayer gameplay and story.
During E3 2018, Bioware explained that the upcoming shooter Anthem places a special focus on story. The game is designed to allow for story DLC to be released “for years”. Fans want this, believes BioWare.
Lead Writer Cathleen Rootsaert explains that new missions, world events, or storylines can be added to Anthem at any time. That’s why Anthem won’t be a multiplayer game where the story is diluted. It will be “something new and different”.
There is singleplayer content in your base
Outside your hub in Anthem, there is the multiplayer world where you can play with other players. You return to your base after missions and experience the singleplayer part of Anthem there. This is meant to ensure that the game’s story does not feel too brief, while you can still play in co-op with your friends.
Through your actions with NPCs and solving specific quests, the story of your Anthem can differ from that of other players.
