"BioWare's questionable 2019 looter shooter detour that failed to take off and never got the second chance the RPG studio had promised. According to the initial announcement, fans who bought the game would still be able to play it up until it finally goes offline forever on January 12. However, as the end date gets closer, some players who are trying to go take their Javelins out for one last spin have discovered they're no longer able to open the game."
"We first took notice of this after seeing a few posts on X from users with screenshots showing that they were no longer able to download after previously purchasing it at some point over the past seven years. The EA app instead told them they "don't own" the game. I asked around and a friend who had the game through the EA Play subscription tried to download it to his PC and was told "this game is no longer offered in our catalog.""
Electronic Arts will shut down Anthem on January 12, 2026. Some players who previously purchased the game now report they cannot download it from the EA App. The EA App has displayed messages such as "don't own" or "this game is no longer offered in our catalog" when affected users attempt downloads. The issue appears inconsistent, as some users can still download via EA Play. Anthem has not been available for purchase since the shutdown announcement in July, leaving some owners unable to access a final play session before servers go offline.
