Ubisoft Mainz has recently shared exciting new details about the upcoming game, *Anno 117: Pax Romana*, through a captivating trailer. Initially, the game was set to explore two distinct regions, Lazio and Albion, but the latest preview suggests that players will start their journey in the peaceful region of Lazio. This serene setting serves as the launchpad before players are thrust into the more challenging environment of Albion, which represents ancient Britain.
According to Creative Director Manuel Rainer, Lazio's tranquility is disrupted by an unexpected disaster, prompting players to venture into the uncharted territories of Albion. This region is notorious for its harsh climate, defiant tribes, and its considerable distance from Rome, which poses significant governance challenges. As the governor, players are tasked with navigating these difficulties, but the game encourages a non-violent approach. Players can achieve harmony by respecting and integrating with local customs, adding a layer of cultural depth to the gameplay.
A notable feature of *Anno 117: Pax Romana* is the ability to customize ships. Players can strategically modify their vessels, choosing between speed enhancements with additional oarsmen or bolstering their offensive capabilities with archery turrets. This customization adds a tactical element to the game, allowing players to adapt their strategies based on the challenges they face.
*Anno 117: Pax Romana* is set to launch in 2025 and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X, promising a rich and immersive experience for fans of the series and newcomers alike.
