How to Install the Anthem Demo and Invite Friends

The Anthem demo has just been released by EA for all platforms. This means you can start pre-downloading the demo regardless of your eligibility to access the VIP demo. The first demo or beta starts this Friday, so make sure to set up everything beforehand!

If you have already pre-ordered the game, purchased the EA Access on consoles or the Origin Access subscription on PC, then you can access and play the VIP demo on the demo launch date. All you have to do is head to the Origin’s store page and get your demo there. It’s as simple as that.

Keep in mind that Anthem is around 35GB, so you might want to pre-load in advance. For everyone else, you can still pre-load the game but you won’t be able to play Anthem without being eligible.
