It’s August and that means gamescom in Cologne is just around the corner. Time to tell you in some more detail what you can expect at the convention next week and update you on some other news around Anno 117: Pax Romana.
Gamescom Overview
At gamescom 2025 in Cologne we’re offering you a full Anno experience at our booth from August 21st until August 24th:
Get your hands on the game and discover both the provinces Albion and Latium!
Take some photos with our Anno booth as backdrop or next to one of the giant statues we found in mysterious ancient temples in Mainz and brought to gamescom.
Meet us and join various presentations and panels on Anno 117: Pax Romana in the Community Corner.
Learn more about the province of Albion at the border of the Empire and the challenges and decisions you’ll be facing as a governor – and use the opportunity to ask us your questions in Q&A sessions.
These panels will be held multiple times each day from Thursday (21st) until Sunday (24th), no registration required (but seats are limited for each session). The full schedule for the week will be posted early next week via our social channels.
Not at gamescom? Don't worry!
All panels from Thursday and Friday are livestreamed on the Ubisoft Twitch and YouTube channels.
You can also expect a detailed DevBlog from us AFTER gamescom with all information on what we will reveal about the Celtic province of Albion at gamescom.
History Hit Podcast
Can’t get enough of of the historical period of the Pax Romana which inspired our game? Then check out the first of several episodes of the “Echoes of History” podcast in collaboration with History Hit: Episode 1 – What is Pax Romana?
But what does “Pax Romana” mean? Was this really a peaceful period in history? Or have we misunderstood its meaning for centuries? Dr Hannah Cornwell and Matt Lewis from History Hit are investigating this classic puzzle.
