Ubisoft Mainz has recently shed light on exciting new details about Anno 117: Pax Romana through an engaging new trailer. While previous announcements touched on the exploration of two distinct regions—Lazio and Albion—the latest preview suggests that Lazio serves as the initial setting before players are drawn into the heart of the game in Albion.

Creative Director Manuel Rainer explains that Lazio starts as a tranquil haven, but an unexpected catastrophe forces players to venture into uncharted territories. These territories are none other than Britain, known as Albion, a land notorious for its harsh climate, rebellious tribes, and its considerable distance from Rome, which presents significant governance challenges.

In Anno 117: Pax Romana, you step into the shoes of a governor tasked with navigating these challenges. The game encourages players to seek peace and stability without relying solely on force. Instead, fostering harmony by respecting and integrating local customs is key. A notable feature is the ability to customize ships, allowing for strategic choices—opt for swift navigation with additional oarsmen or bolster your fleet's offensive capabilities with archery turrets.

Anno 117: Pax Romana is set to launch in 2025, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X, promising a rich and immersive experience for strategy game enthusiasts.
