Governor Marcia has heard rumors of a vast, unclaimed land... a place where she could found a city grand enough to rival Rome itself. In today's episode, we set sail to find that land and lay the foundations for our most ambitious project yet: a massive mega city, built under the shadows of a dormant volcanic.

We’ll also be exploring the brand-new features in Anno 117: Pax Romana's first DLC, Prophecies of Ash, which introduces the largest island ever seen in the series.

Note on Production: This footage was recorded on-site at the Ubisoft Mainz offices during Anno Day, so the audio and environment will feel a bit different than the usual studio setup. Additionally, since I don’t have home access to the expansion until it officially launches on April 23, today's session ends a bit abruptly so I could join the developer livestream. Once the DLC is live, we’ll be returning to dramatically expand this city and see just how much of this huge island we can actually fill!
