Ubisoft has officially announced the next game in the Anno franchise, Anno 117: Pax Romana, launching in 2025 for PC and console.

So hyped for this. Anno 1800 is up there with the best games in it's genre.

 

[Xtib81]

Oh wow. Roman Empire = immediately interested.

 

[amigastar]

Looking forward to this one. I love Anno 1800.

 

[Hudo]

Ok, I am hyped.

Yep, same.

 

[Rentahamster]

I'm going to think about the Roman Empire at least . . . two times a day now.

 

[LordCBH]

Fuck yeah!!!

Yep, thanks to Ubi I now made my quota!

On a more serious note, 1800 was pretty good, so Roman Empire setting could be pretty great.

Damn, finally a good Ubi game out of today.

Anno 1800 was the first and only game in the Anno series that I've played, but it got me good. I played from Season 1 and bought all the DLC since then.

My only wish is that they'd do one last rebalance pass through the overall game so that the game can work as one cohesive holistic and integrated system with all the DLC content enabled.

My bussy just flooded. Unffffffff, let me at it!

Hmm really wanted another futuristic but space based Anno, but a good one this time. But Rome is good.

I wonder how they'll treat combat. Anno was never strong in its combat mechanics and this time it's a game about Rome...

Rome was not known for being peaceful.

That's actually true, i still hope combat will not be the primary thing. But i think it won't.

[Mercador]

It still gives 9 when you added every number.

 

[amigastar]

Day 1 for sure

 

[Hudo]

I am also wondering how they'll tackle slavery. Slaves were a big part of Rome's economy.

I hope they don't pussy out...
