BioWare’s Anthem Won’t Feature Mod Support
Despite the fact that developers like Bethesda are recognized for their unwavering support for mods, not everyone is keen on making it available right off the bat. BioWare for example? Not so much, but they’re certainly not against the idea. Since the announcement of Anthem in 2017, BioWare executive Mark Darrah has openly revealed several developer details and features meant for the game upon arrival in 2019. There are finer secrets he’s not keen on exposing until the game officially arrives, but there’s already a lot of information to take in. Unfortunately, one feature that won’t make the cut will be mod supports.
Well, “not for now” anyway. Does that mean there’s a possibility for modifications in the future? Darrah doesn’t go further on the topic, but the particular phrasing certainly sets up for hopefuls.
No. At least not for now https://t.co/kdkmAqrKDR

Other neat tidbits of information Darrah has answered this month alone include concerns and inquiries regarding Javelin suits, passive and active skills, full suit customizations, and much more. Each person will begin Anthem with a single Javelin suit, the Ranger. As players progress through the game, others will consequently become unlocked and ready for use! For now, there are four total suits available at launch, but there will likely be various additions in the future. Want more Anthem related goodness? Make sure to check out all you need to know here.
