Will there be a dev stream accompanying the release of the new DLC as well? Would love for a Q&A regarding present and future
We love doing our streams, but that is currently a bit trickier than usual with working from home due to Covid-19. Definitely something we want to get back to in the future!
Holy shit! Finally 4k with ui scaling but why the f**k no anno 2070? This also needs ui scaling. 2205 has it..
2070 is still fairly modern (no pun intended) compared to the other two games, and also doesn't really fit in with the historic theme :)
Hey Anno Community,
today we are very excited to share the announcement of the upcoming Anno History Collection with you all. With this collection, we are updating the first four Anno games (1602, 1503, 1701 and 1404) to take advantage of modern PCs, while keeping the classic gameplay we all know and love. Among the more notable improvements to all four games are:
I may have missed it but do we have a release date for bright harvest??
Indeed we do, and it is June 2.
My ticket from the last twitch drops that i didn't got ingame is still open and they are already doing the next...
Development and customer support (who will be the ones handling your issue) are two entirely unrelated teams and topics.
Like Anno 2007? If its gonna be Anno 2007, can we have a nickleback cover for our music pavilion?
I have to say that while we obviously throw around a lot of ideas all the time, present day as a setting for Anno has never really been much of a topic for discussion internally.
Over the coming weekend we will give you the opportunity to already take a closer look at the contents of upcoming Season 2 Pass DLC “Bright Harvest” as well as Game Update 8 by watching some of your favourite streamers during another Twitch Drops Event.
The whole event takes place from Friday May 29 until June 8.
During the event, you will be able to watch how a variety of s...

As others pointed out, these are far outside the scope of quality of life improvements, which is more along the lines of "can we save the player a few clicks here and there in the menu".
The first point alone literally asks for dozens if not hundreds (we do after all have hundreds of buildings), which would even be extremely ambitious for a big DLC :)
Keep in mind that map seeds will be changing with Game Update 8 on June 2.
We usually aim to release new DLCs at 6pm CEST, which is noon EST and 9am PST. That allows us to release the DLC simultaneously across Uplay, Steam and Epic Game Store.
The Game Update with the balancing changes is coming on June 2.
This really looks amazing! I was planning to play the new Total War DLC, but this looks amazing and might change this to keep playing Anno!
One little question, will the ornament pack(the poll you put out early, where city life won) be released in this update aswell? Or that will come later?
No, that will come later in the Summer, as we just started working on them now as the voting came to a close.
Good thing I'll be on vacation when the DLC hits so I'll have enough time to rearrange all my farms 😀
Excellent timing!
Is there any chance of a game update adding more content and tiers of population to the new world so it can stand on its own instead of being obviously subservient as a needs supplier to the old world?
There are no plans for additional tiers to the New World (and that would definitely not be a Game Update).
Oeh June 2nd already!
I expected half of July xD Great news ^^
Everyone can use some positive surprises these days!
The industrial area in the screenshot looks great! When the voting came up for what type of flavor content pack we wanted I was a bit sad not to see anything more generic / industrial but hey, here we are :D
That’s why we did not include them in the voting:)
