Anthem has just dropped a new update, and it’s a fairly substantial one. The big addition is the Sunken Cell, an all-new stronghold to bolster the game’s thin endgame content. BioWare has also made a number of changes that will reduce players’ need to constantly revisit Fort Tarsis (and sit through the associated loading screens). Of course, a long list of balance changes and bug fixes have been made as well. You can get a brief peek at the new stronghold, below.

　　The Sunken Cell stronghold is now live – enter the stronghold with your fellow Freelancers to put an end to the Dominion’s deadly plans.
