A console version for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S was released on March 16, 2023. In December 2022, Anno 1800 was reinstated on Steam. It was originally also available for pre-purchase on Steam, but was pulled from Steam when it officially launched. Distribution Īnno 1800 is available on Steam, Epic Games Store, Origin, and Ubisoft Connect. The three DLCs included in Season 4 are Seeds of Change, Empire of the Skies, and New World Rising. In addition, these three DLCs each came with their own custom scenario, each containing new challenges and unique gameplay experiences. These DLCs focused more on the New World, introducing haciendas and other game mechanics.
In 2022, Season 4 saw the release of a further three DLCs. The High Life implements the construction of the first skyscrapers helping keep investors happy with shopping malls and the construction of the game’s biggest monument, the Empire Building. Tourist Season introduces the new Tourist resident tier to city’s hotels and keep them entertained with restaurants and bus tours of hotspots. Docklands allows the player to turn their city into a global trade hub with a modular warehouse system and use trade contracts to create a monopoly on player's favorite goods. In 2021, Season 3 introduced three more DLCs. In Land of Lions the player is challenged with exploring a desert, navigate social class and build an irrigation system to counter water shortage. The Bright Harvest DLC introduces tractors and workforce reduction. Seat of Power lets the player choose which policies will influence the settlements in the vicinity of a palace. In 2020, Season 2 introduced a further three DLC packs. Sunken Treasure offers a new map with a huge island on which the player can build a gigantic city, and special items to boost their industry to sustain that city. While in Botanica cities can be beautified to attract more tourists, The Passage allows the player to sail the Northwest Passage on the way to the Arctic Circle. The Anno 1800 Season 1 pass for paid-for downloadable content (DLC) includes the three DLC packs Sunken Treasure, Botanica and The Passage. Once planning is done and the necessary resources are gathered, each blueprint building can be built with a single click. If a player has insufficient resources the blueprint building can be placed on the city map for later construction. It helps the player by allowing them to plan out their city with silhouetted blueprint buildings, without immediately spending valuable resources on actually constructing them. The blueprint mode of Anno 1800 is one of the new additions to the series. Tourists contribute to the city's income and will flock to natural land, local festivities, and various decorative ornaments, but dislike pollution, local unrest, and noisy or smelly industry. With every factory the city's attractiveness rating falls and the rating of the area around an emerging industrial zone is also affected. The attractiveness rating of Anno 1800 grapples with the impact of industrialization on the population. Anno 1800 integrates into a classic city-building game featuring randomly generated maps and trade routes, artificial intelligence (AI) opponents that build on the same map as the player, and naval warfare. Like Anno 2205, the game features multisession gameplay, though unlike its predecessor, combat and city-building sessions are not separated. The game also features a story campaign, a sandbox mode, and multiplayer mode. Unlike its colonial 18th century predecessor Anno 1701, the game has a blueprint feature that helps the player to plan out the city. A parallel New World city exists, which produces products that laborers in the Old World want to purchase, thus trade routes need to be established.
The core gameplay of Anno 1800 takes place in the Old World, where the needs of the citizens, workers and artisans are central to the management of production and supply chains. While it is set in the context of colonial trade, the featured architecture is Victorian Era and the economic engine is factory labor. Like other Anno games, Anno 1800 is a city-building and strategy game.
Following the previous installment, the game returns to the series' traditional city-building and ocean combat mechanics, but introduces new aspects of gameplay, such as tourism, blueprinting, and the effects of industrialisation influences on island inhabitants.Īnno 1800 takes place in the 19th century at the dawn of the Industrial Age. It is the seventh game in the Anno series, and returns to the use of a historical setting, following the previous futuristic titles Anno 2070 and Anno 2205, taking place during the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century. Anno 1800 is a city-building real-time strategy video game, developed by Ubisoft Blue Byte and published by Ubisoft, and launched on April 16, 2019.
