Anthem puts the Frostbite engine into a headlock and squeezes it for all it's worth with it's constant advanced particle effects on screen almost all the time. Let's take a look at about the best performance you can expect from Anthem while I finish the full Preview. PC Gamer reported users struggling to get 60fps at higher resolutions. There's a lot going on in this game and it's beautiful but also a pretty big downgrade in some parts compared to what we first saw at E3.
