Anthem: 10 Things Bioware Must Deliver

7. Fully Customisable Exosuits

The reveals so far have made much of the ‘Javelins’ - the powered exosuits with which its intrepid heroes venture into the dangerous wilds beyond the city walls.

While the gameplay footage suggested the ability to equip your Javelin with different weapons loadouts, a more in-depth customisable nature to your sexy metal onesie would set the Javelins apart.

Plenty of other games slap their players into a tactical robo-suit and send them out to let off a few rockets. Anthem can help make its offering something different with a full RPG-level upgrade and cosmetic customisation system.

Players love making gear their own, both cosmetically and to suit the way they prefer to play, as well as using high-end items to flash their gaming credentials to all around.

Adding that aspect to Anthem will help keep players invested in striving to reach the next equipment tier, aspiring to earn the shiniest coat of paint for their exoskeletal killing buddy.
