All You Should Know about Anno 117 Pax Romana. Release Date, Features and More Explained

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the anticipation for Anno 117 Pax Romana is palpable, and it’s not just because of the intriguing title or the tantalizing glimpses we’ve been given so far. The prospect of stepping into the golden era of the Roman Empire, with its peace and prosperity, has me eagerly counting the days.


Approximately three months have passed since Anno 117 Pax Romana was unveiled. At present, there’s not a great deal of information available about the upcoming city builder game in the series. Yet, it’s safe to say that we’re not entirely in the dark. In this article, we’ve compiled all the details available so far.

Anno 117 Pax Romana Platforms

Indeed, the game titled “Anno 117 Pax Romana” is set to launch on PC. If you’re eager to play it via Steam, there might be some complications, but it’s plausible that it will also appear on this platform eventually. For console enthusiasts, I have great news! The game will be accessible on the Xbox Series X / S and PS5 as well.

Release Date and Price of Anno 117 Pax Romana

Currently, specifics about the price and launch date for Anno 117 Pax Romana are scarce, but developers have confirmed a release in the next year. It’s unlikely that the game will premiere during the first half of 2025. According to Laura Kate Dale’s article for Epic Games News, creators aim to unveil the gameplay of Pax Romana to the public early next year. Given this information and our lack of details, it seems reasonable to anticipate that the new Anno title won’t arrive before the mid-year mark.

Setting of Anno 117 Pax Romana

Although the game details are limited, it doesn’t mean we’re completely in the dark. In a recent interview with Ellie Vengala, Ubisoft’s Communications Specialist, Manuel Reinher, the game’s Creative Director, disclosed some information about the project (as reported by Xbox news).

Kick things off by discussing the date – 117. This number isn’t just randomly chosen, as the developers stated; instead, they selected it because it marks a significant time for the Roman Empire – often referred to as its golden age. This era was characterized by peace and expansion, making it an ideal backdrop for the Anno franchise. Furthermore, Manuel Reinher highlighted that every year from this series’ titles sums up to 9, thus maintaining tradition.

At the outset of the game, you’ll get an opportunity to select a region, which is a fresh addition to the series. One of these regions will be based on ancient Great Britain, known as Albion, while another will be nestled in sunny Italy, near the heart of the empire.

Choices and other features in Anno 117 Pax Romana

As per Manuel Reinher’s explanation, Anno 117 Pax Romana will involve significant decisions right from the start, including the initial selection of a province. This choice won’t be trivial; it will have substantial implications. According to the Epic Games News article we’ve mentioned earlier, developers shared crucial details during Gamescom 2024. It appears that, for instance, in the Albion province, the decision about its culture will be pivotal and will bring about consequences. Will you preserve local customs or Romanize them? We anticipate that equally significant choices will also emerge when choosing other starting points.

Developers, too, pay close attention to fine points. During the Xbox news interview, the creative director provided an illustrative instance where, upon zooming in, one could observe children at play on a city street or spectators in the Colosseum celebrating.
