The role of governor/city builder is never over, regardless of the era, and that applies to Anno 117: Pax Romana’s post-launch support as well. In a new deep dive trailer, Ubisoft confirmed three paid DLC for Year 1, starting with the Provinces of Ash.
It adds a new island, where a volcano ominously looms. The Hippodrome is the next DLC, which adds the coliseum, a renowned pastime for the Roman Empire back in the day, where you can host chariot races. No word yet on whether there’s gladiatorial combat with the option to face the winner in a duel to the death.
Finally, there’s Dawn of the Delta, which ventures into Egypt, adding a new province and culture, which may seem odd, but considering that you can choose to rule the Celtic Albion instead of Latium, it’s a good choice.
Anno 117: Pax Romana launches on November 13th for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, with dates for its post-launch DLC to be announced. Stay tuned in the meantime.
This post highlights some exciting new features in Anno 117! The addition of a volcanic island and a Coliseum sounds like a great way to enhance the gameplay. It’s fascinating how the role of governor and city builder continues to evolve through different eras. Looking forward to seeing how these elements will play out!
coliseum sounds like a great way to expand gameplay. I’m particularly intrigued by how the volcanic island might introduce unique resources or challenges. It’ll be interesting to see how players adapt their strategies to manage both the beauty and potential hazards of that environment!
I agree, the coliseum definitely adds a unique layer to the gameplay! The volcanic island also opens up new strategic options for resource management and city expansion, which could really change how players approach their governance in the game. It’ll be interesting to see how these features interact with existing mechanics.
