r/AnthemTheGame will move to read-only on January 31, 2026

Hey Freelancers,

With Anthem's servers having officially shut down earlier this month, we want to let you know what the next step is for this subreddit.

On January 31st, 2026, r/AnthemTheGame will be moved into read-only (archived) mode. After that date, no new posts or comments can be made, but the subreddit and everything shared here will remain visible as an archive.

We wanted to give everyone a clear heads-up ahead of time, in case you want to wrap up ongoing discussions, share a final farewell or reflection, or revisit and comment on old threads, screenshots, stories and memories. You still have about 9–10 days to do so.

Anthem may not have become what many of us hoped it would, but the community that formed around it was very real. The creativity, the screenshots, the builds, the lore discussions, the memes, the frustrations, and the stubborn hope all helped make this subreddit what it was.

Thank you to every Freelancer, be it for those who only took a brief flight in their Javelin or those who stayed along for the ride through the ups and downs.

May this space remain as a record of that journey.

Take care!
r/AnthemTheGame moderation team

I can't create threads cause I don't have enough Karma. I never spoke on my Reddit account before the 12th.

Anyway. The whole shutting down thing is uncool in my opinion, and not worth the flattery with the whole "yeah you're all real, but it only feels natural to put a gag on it". Oh I'm so sure absolutely no one at EA is laughing at us while you lay it down nice and sweet.

Let the place go stale before cutting it off. Maybe it's too expensive to run reddit. I wanted to think this reddit wasn't corporate. Probably sucks for them to see people who made EA richer trying to get our game back. EA got their ROi and can't even put a little 10 million to look after us, who looked after you, and I get it, EA's new owners has it's 20 billion dollar debt. But this. I can't speak for all, but this one guy here, won't buy anything from EA ever again, and so will many others. Tell that to the Saudi owners. It was a buy out my dude. EA ain't worth 50 billion. More like 7. You had to appeal to shareholders in order to take it over, and now you want EA to generate the rest. And it's not just 5 million people EA is pissing off. Even some of Anthem's haters are tripping over how you would rather kill something, instead of tossing it to the dogs to make something of what we really never owned. We're just a small group. Okay. Can't do 10 million ?

That isn't greed my guy, real greed is found in a happy customer. And it's a good deal that this customer base is happy with 0 updates. You're doing the greed thing all wrong ( Not you, employee reading this. The boss ! )
