At Ubisoft Forward 2024, the new part of the Anno construction series was announced: It is titled Anno 117: Pax Romana.
Not much more has been revealed yet. Anno 117: Pax Romana takes place during the time of the Roman Empire, in an era in which the Gallic War is long over and a time of peace and cultural exchange between the provinces prevails.
For the first time in Anno history, you can choose your starting area and thus your faction: either you start in the Celtic plains of Albion (then England) or Latium, the center of Italy with its capital Rome.
Anno 117: Pax Romana is scheduled to be released next year in 2025 for PC and the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles.
