EA will close the Anthem servers on January 12, 2026

Anthem released back in February 2019 and ended up being forgotten rather fast, which marked a turning point for BioWare. The studio aimed to bring back the game with a sort of version 2.0, but it ended up being cancelled.

Now, Electronic Arts has made a final decision, announcing that the servers will be shut down on January 12, 2026. You can still play for the next six months before Anthem becomes totally inaccessible.

It's no longer possible to purchase premium currency, and the remaining balance can be used until the servers go offline.
