Anno 117: Pax Romana is Ubisoft Mainz’s city-building strategy game set in the Roman Empire. As governor, you develop cities, meet your citizens’ needs and decide how to deal with other rulers. Commerce and diplomacy sit alongside battles on land and at sea.
The base game is available now. Dawn of the Delta, announced for November 5, 2026, is set to add Aegyptus: a province where scarce fertile land, floodplains and a navigable river will reshape settlement planning.
Latium and Albion
Latium represents the Roman heartland, while Albion takes you into Celtic wetlands. The difference is more than scenery. You choose whether to honour local Celtic culture or impose Roman traditions, shaping the development of your provinces and their people.
Trade, Alliances and Military Strength
Your cities must balance the needs of their people with the emperor’s demands. Diplomacy and commerce offer ways to expand your provinces, while military force provides another route. You can forge alliances or confront rivals through strategic land battles and naval combat.
Aegyptus and Dawn of the Delta
The announced expansion shifts the focus to a river delta. Its buildable areas will be divided into Farmland, regularly flooded Floodplains and the Arid Zone. Ships will remain important for moving goods between landmasses separated by the river. With the DLC enabled, Aegyptus is planned as both a starting province for a new game and a destination in an existing save.
