BioWare’s Mark Darrah, executive producer for Anthem, dropped a nearly 20-minute chunk of gameplay today on Twitter. Narrated by BioWare lead producer Ben Irving, it sheds new light on how raids will work in the game. The clip, which we’ve embedded above, focuses on a four-player assault on an enemy base. So-called “stronghold missions” will be one type of raid available to players in Anthem, the multiplayer loot shooter scheduled for release on Feb. 22, 2019.

Irving said that once players discover a stronghold, they can launch multiplayer raids at any time. Players can elect to take them on in small groups with up to four players, and can add others to the party once a raid is in progress. Irving said that players of any level will be able to participate together in the same instance. The clip even showed a group of level 30 players teaming up with a level 1 newbie.
