Whether you’re already so far on-board for Anthem that you’ve already pre-ordered it or you’re waiting to see how the actual game works out, you will be able to take part in the game’s demo experience. There are two waves of demos planned, with the first starting on January 25th and running until January 27th, but it’s just open to players who have pre-ordered the game and Origin Access members. The second demo starting on February 1st and running to February 3rd is open to anyone who wants to download and install the game.
Both demos are likely to be identical in content, but players who get through the first demo are promised an exclusive in-game item as a reward (though details on what that item may be are unrevealed). Both demos will include missions and allow two character options, one of which will be the Ranger Javelin. If you’re waiting to see whether or not you want to take the plunge and make the full purchase, then, mark your calendars for February 1st.
