The Javelin exosuit Colossus is high on the wishlist of many players. And you can fulfill this wish quickly in the online shooter Anthem quickly.
Currently, Bioware keeps revealing new snippets of information about their online shooter Anthem, which is set to launch in February. Besides live streams that come about every two weeks, producer Mark Darrah is actively tweeting information.
The latest information revolves around the Colossus, the tank of Anthem.
It won’t take long to get a Colossus
Which Javelin do you start with? In Anthem, there are the Javelins
- Colossus – Powerful in close and long-range combat, very resilient
- Ranger – An all-round Javelin
- Interceptor – Small, agile, and fast, well-suited for close combat
- Storm – Particularly effective in long-range combat
Each has different abilities and should therefore be used for the corresponding missions.
Every player starts with the Ranger, an all-rounder that performs well in any situation. But how long does it take to get access to the other Javelin suits?
When do you get the Colossus? According to Bioware’s Mark Darrah, it takes about an hour to obtain the Colossus. Then you can unleash its superior firepower. The Colossus is suitable for combat operations where you can expect many enemies.
The Colossus is the largest and most resilient Javelin, equipped with suitable weaponry for both close and long-range combat.
Customization is important
Will everyone be running around with the Colossus? The Colossus is popular among many players. Therefore, many will try to get it as quickly as possible.
However, that doesn’t mean you’ll only see players with Colossus flying around in Anthem. Tactics are required in the missions. You must always choose the Javelin that is best suited for the mission. And that is not always the Colossus.
Moreover, each player customizes their Javelin according to their own ideas. This is a very important feature for Anthem. How customized Colossus in orange looks is shown in new screenshots that game designer Emily Taylor published on Twitter. We have embedded the two pictures here in the paragraph.
This way, you differentiate yourself from other players even when multiple people are controlling a Colossus.
It all starts on February 22, 2019. Then Anthem will be released for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Pre-order customers will be able to try a demo on February 1.
