Anthem Demo Is Having Some Problems
Although Anthem’s VIP demo is currently live, it has been experiencing some servers issues that have left lots of people disappointed. But according to a recent Twitter post from EA global community manager Jesse Anderson, the company is working on fixing them.
“Servers are getting SLAMMED for the #AnthemGame VIP demo right now. The team is working on it as we speak.”
We’re adding more server capacity to the #Anthem demo right now. Hang tight while we work to get everyone into the game.

Lots of players are unable to access the VIP demo due to errors in retrieving live service data and servers hitting maximum capacity. Even the official redemption website is experiencing issues.
