Hey Anno Community!
Today’s a special day for us since we are excited to show you a first, longer look at Anno 117: Pax Romana and how you should go about to become a great governor! And who better to tell you all about it than our old friend, the Town Crier:
We hope you enjoyed this overview of some of the core mechanics as well as new features of Anno 117: Pax Romana!
For the first time in Anno, you step into the role of a character — a newly appointed governor, a position of power in the Roman Empire. Being a governor will allow you to experience Rome first-hand like never before, from awe-inspiring spectacles like the Naumachia in the Amphitheatre to the untamed Celtic wetlands of Albion.
“I have so many more questions and want to see more!”, we hear you shout. Well, don’t worry: Your favourite content creator might just have exactly what you’re looking for. We’re very excited to see the reactions from so many of them from around the world and strongly recommend you to have a look!
We won’t stop there, of course:
This Wednesday, May 21st, we’ll be streaming Anno 117: Pax Romana live from the studio! Join Game Director Jan, Art Director Reiko and Community Developer Oliver on Twitch at 5PM CEST/3PM UTC/11AM EDT to learn more about some of the new features – and ask questions directly to the developers.
