Hey all.

There are currently some issues with the Anno 2070 (and some other games') servers, we've been told, which result in the online functionalities not being available all the time.

It's being investigated by the responsible teams but last I heard there's no ETA yet on a resolution - sorry :/

Have seen one vaguely correct guess on Discord so far. There might actually be hints on another image of we showed.

Hey Anno Community,

As you might have seen from our social post last Friday, we announced a couple of things happening in the upcoming weeks.

Back in February, during our IGN Fan Fest segment, we mentioned we would show more of the game in April… well, we got the months mixed up. The full gameplay reveal will happen during the week of 19th May.

Hey, just letting you all know that the issue is still under investigation by the sys admins to check for the root cause. That's all I have right now, but hope to have updates soon.

If you look at the mappers portfolio he stopped adding projects he worked on after Bruning Eden. So either he forgot to update the list with later DLC's, went on an extended vacation, or was working on anno 117.

I didn't forget to add more projects to the portfolio ;) In fact I slowly transitioned over to Anno 117 after Eden Burning to do the first early tests and research - the results of which you can partially see in the DevBlog. But we were very far away from a working pipeline or production readiness at that point. The rest of the level art team continued with the Anno 1800 postlaunch content.

Salvete, Anno community!

My name is Björn Frechenhäuser and I am a Senior Level Artist working on Anno 117: Pax Romana. I have been at Ubisoft Mainz for 12 years and after Anno 2205 and Anno 1800, this is the third Anno game I have the pleasure of working on. If you’d like to see some of my work on previous installments, you can check out my Artstation profile.

Level Art can mean a lot of different things, very dependent on which company, which studio and which project you work for. It can be more centric around the creation of 3D assets and textures or the visual development and dressing of levels or storytelling in the world and its locations. So, what does it mean for Anno? In short: all of the above (and more). But either w...

I don’t know how to feel honestly.

Didn’t they say that they started working on the new game barely 7 months ago? Full gameplay will be ready in 8 months?

I’m worried that this is gonna be an anno1800 with a different setting, like a very big dlc.

That's correct, reveal of the game was in June last year.

However, for context: full on development (i.e. game leaving concept phase and launching actual production) started in 2023.

Not delayed! It was always planned for May

1602 for me as well: getting bankrupt cause of buying too many tools and not understanding all game mechanics as a kid - good memories

Ever been on one of those 4-D rides in Disney World? Theoretically... How much would i have to pay for a 4-D anno game?

Have not, personally.

If we get everyone's souls, maybe we can do a 4D Anno

I wish all game developers could be as open, transparent and communicative as the Anno team.

Very happy to hear you're enjoying these blogs!

They take some time to put together, with input from different departments and dedicated visuals to explain things (like in these recent blogs), so, we're glad they're so well-received.
