Anthem launched last February with a troubled launch, troubled post-launch support, and a report of its turbulent seven-year development cycle behind the game.

The game is currently in its season-long Cataclysm event, which is set to end soon, a timed end-game activity with exclusive loot and cosmetics.

The Legion of Dawn Edition of Anthem was available for Origin Access Premier subscribers when the game launched, as the service offers full access to new PC Electronic Arts games on day one for $14.99 per month or $99.99 for a whole year.

The standard edition of the game is now available for Origin Access Basic on PC and EA Access for Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The two services offer a vault of EA games to play anytime and 10-hour trials of new EA games for $4.99 per month or $29.99 for a year.

EA also announced other games coming to Origin Access Premier and Basic in September. Premier members can download Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville and FIFA 2020, while both Premier and Basic members can play Out of the Park Baseball 20, Vambrace: Cold Soul, The Escapists 2, Yooka-Laylee, and Ultimate Chicken Horse.
