Ways to Prepare for Anthem
Get Pre-loading
Depending on what platform you’re going to be playing Anthem on, you’ll be able to begin pre-loading the game as of right now.
PC players who are signed up to either the Basic or Premier versions of Origin Access can begin pre-loading the game right now, ready to jump into the action as soon as their early access period begins on Feb. 15.
This also applies for EA Access subscribers on Xbox One, but sadly for PS4 owners, there’s no word yet exactly on when you’ll be able to begin pre-loading it. We’ll be keeping our aforementioned post updated, however, so be sure to stay tuned with Twinfinite so you can hop into the action as soon as it goes live.
While pre-loading does mean you’ll have Anthem downloaded on your system, you still won’t be able to play the game until it unlocks officially on Feb. 22.
Still, as soon as the clock strikes midnight, you’ll be able to load up and log in to the servers, rather than having to do any updates, wait for the install, or any other annoying things that keep you out of the action. Pre-loading truly is the fastest way to start playing.
