EA has announced the end of its online multiplayer shooter game Anthem. The game didn't meet financial expectations.

Anthem will be taken offline for good, another game people cannot play even though they paid for it. A consumer movement is trying to help.

Times are tough for the revered studio as its last game, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, failed to meet EA's expectations and it's estimated that fewer than 100 staff members are left, down from its peak of over 400 employees. The studio's next game is a n ew entry in the Mass Effect series, which is being developed by a "core" team.
