Anno 117: Pax Romana is the latest installment in Ubisoft’s long-running Anno series. Set in the Roman Empire in the year 117 AD, the game places players in the role of a governor responsible for the development and management of newly acquired provinces, such as Latium and Albion. The title integrates established city-building mechanics with resource management and strategic military planning. By requiring the careful balancing of economic growth, cultural integration, and defense, the game seeks to simulate the complex challenges of maintaining imperial stability while fostering urban and infrastructural development.

Scheduled for release on November 13, 2025, Anno 117: Pax Romana will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. In addition to the base offering, Ubisoft has introduced special and collector’s editions that include physical memorabilia and exclusive digital content. The game’s updated features include refined citizen needs systems and tactical combat mechanics—elements that underscore the importance of balancing civilian priorities with military objectives. Overall, this iteration builds on the historical simulation and strategic depth established by previous Anno titles while incorporating modernized gameplay innovations.
