EA has announced that the closed alpha for BioWare’s upcoming multiplayer space shooter Anthem will begin on December 8th for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
While EA says the closed beta event – which runs from December 8th to December 9th – is an opportunity for players to experience the game, it also warns that BioWare will be “adjusting things like matchmaking and server load on the fly”. As such, the event is “more limited than what we want to share in the pre-launch demos”.
Given the Anthem Closed Alpha’s limited nature, players that want to join in will need to sign up to EA’s Community Playtest programme by December 3rd. Access will be available on all platforms – PC, Xbox One, and PS4 – but participants can only register to play on one device.
