Anno 1800 brings players at the dawn of the industrial age, a time of industrialization, diplomacy and discovery. Players will have the chance to prove their skills as a ruler, as they create huge metropolises, plan efficient logistic networks, explore and settle new lands and dominate their opponents by diplomacy, trade or warfare.

Anno 1800 combines the best of what the franchise can offer: a rich city-building experience, including a story-based campaign, a highly customizable sandbox mode and the classic Anno multiplayer experience.

This is the dawn of the industrial age and the path you choose will define your world. Are you renovator or exploiter? Suppressor or liberator? Diplomacy, trade or warfare, choose your strategy for victory. It’s up to you how the world will remember your name.

Ubisoft announced that Anno 1800 will be released on February 26, 2019 on PC.

Additionally, Ubisoft announced the Digital Deluxe and the Pioneers Editions of Anno 1800:

• In the Digital Deluxe Edition, players will receive the base game and will get access to the Digital Deluxe Content including the first DLC** of the game “The Anarchist”, the game soundtrack, an artbook and exclusive company logos.
