Ubisoft reveals Anno 117: Pax Romana campaign and Year 1 Pass details

Anno 117 will get three DLCs in its Year 1 Pass.

Ahead of the game’s launch in November, Ubisoft shared a new deep dive trailer for Anno 117: Pax Romana, revealing new details about its campaign. Plus, the new Anno game’s Year 1 Pass content has been unveiled.

The latest trailer for the game is 12 minutes long, and it is an in-depth exploration of the Anno 117 systems and mechanics. In case you haven’t seen it yet, you can check out the new trailer here:

As for the campaign, Ubisoft revealed that players will be able to choose their character for the first time in the series, with each character affecting the story of a run.

The first option is Marcus, who has been appointed as a Roman Governor, though he is a man who grapples with self-doubt after getting this post. Marcus seems to represent the more Roman path. Meanwhile, the other option is Marcia, a woman who has risen up the ranks, despite the male-dominated nature of the Roman Empire. She seems to be the character for the alternate path of redefining the nature of Roman rule.

Finally, Ubisoft shared some new details about the three DLC expansions coming to the game as part of the Year 1 Pass:

  • DLC 1 – Provinces of Ash
    • Discover the largest island ever created in Anno, featuring a towering volcano and a new deity to worship. This wild and untamed land offers fresh resources, unique cultural encounters, and strategic depth.
  • DLC 2 – The Hippodrome
    • Construct the grandest monument in Anno history, inspired by the legendary Circus Maximus. Host thrilling chariot races to entertain your citizens, boost your prestige, and attract elite specialists from across the empire.
  • DLC 3 – Dawn of the Delta
    • Venture into a new province shaped by vast deserts and a mighty river. Encounter unfamiliar gods and a new culture as you establish your rule in this distant frontier, expanding the reach and influence of Roman civilization.

Anno 117: Pax Romana will be released on November 13, 2025, on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Amazon Luna, and PC.
