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 has reached 3.5 million players around the world, on PC and Console.

Released on April 16, 2019, for PC, and on March 16, 2023, for PS5 and Xbox Series consoles, the game has received regular updates with new content, including 12 gameplay DLCs and 13 cosmetic DLCs with the latest one, Eldritch Pack, available now for $4.99. Players can enjoy 19 new ornaments and skins to adopt a more Gothic and spooky style for their city.

“Thank you to our longstanding players and newcomers for helping us reach this milestone! It’s been 25 amazing years of Anno; we are so grateful to have such an engaged and wonderful community!” - Stephane Jankowski, Executive Producer.

To celebrate this milestone, Anno 1800 players will receive a new and free ornament with the update available today.
