The developers at Ubisoft Mainz have exciting news for fans of the Anno series with the release of a new trailer for Anno 117: Pax Romana. This eagerly anticipated game expands on earlier announcements, detailing the journey from the serene region of Lazio to the challenging landscapes of Albion. According to Creative Director Manuel Rainer, Lazio serves as the starting point where players will encounter a sudden disaster, propelling them to venture into the unknown territories of Britain, known in the game as Albion.
Albion presents a stark contrast to Lazio, characterized by its harsh climate, rebellious tribes, and the logistical challenges posed by its distance from Rome. As the governor, players must navigate these difficulties without relying solely on force. Instead, they can achieve peace and stability by respecting and integrating with local customs. A unique feature of the game is the ability to customize ships, where players can decide to enhance speed with additional oarsmen or bolster their defenses with archery turrets.
Anno 117: Pax Romana is set to launch in 2025, and it will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X, promising a rich and immersive experience for strategy game enthusiasts.
