Ubisoft Mainz has recently lifted the veil on more exciting details about *Anno 117: Pax Romana* with the release of a brand-new trailer. While previous announcements had already teased the exploration of two distinct regions—Lazio and Albion—the latest preview suggests that Lazio serves as the initial setting before the narrative shifts to the main stage in Albion.
Creative Director Manuel Rainer shared that Lazio starts off as a tranquil setting, but an unexpected catastrophe forces players to venture into uncharted territories. These new lands are none other than Britain, known as Albion, which presents players with challenging conditions: a harsh climate, rebellious tribes, and its remote location from Rome, all of which add complexity to governance.
In *Anno 117: Pax Romana*, players step into the shoes of a governor tasked with navigating these challenges without relying solely on violence. Instead, fostering peace and harmony can be achieved by respecting and integrating with local customs. A notable feature of the game includes customizable ships, allowing players to strategically tailor their vessels—opt for speed with additional oarsmen or bolster firepower with onboard archery turrets.
Mark your calendars—*Anno 117: Pax Romana* is set to launch in 2025, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X platforms. Get ready to embark on a journey of governance and exploration in the Roman era!
