ANTHEM’s Live-Service Shutdown Shocker: Millions Mad After 24-Hour Outage Explosion! When a major game service vanishes mid-play, disgruntled players don’t just stay quiet—they explode. That’s exactly what happened in June 2024 when ANTHEM, CD Projekt Red’s ambitious living service title, suffered a massive 24-hour outage that left millions of active players in the dark—then inexplicably returned with game-breaking changes. ### The Crash That Shook a Community On June 18, 2024, right in the middle of the week, ANTHEM’s servers collapsed without warning. What followed was chaos: online matches froze, progress reset, and thousands lost progress after weeks of grinding. What followed wasn’t just repair work—CD Projekt Red dropped an explosive announcement: hours after the outage, they pivoted the game’s live-service model entirely, shuttering core gameplay features in favor of a seasonal, event-driven format.
