What is Anno 117: Pax Romana?
Anno 117: Pax Romana puts you in charge of Roman provinces as a governor. You build cities, manage production chains and balance your citizens’ needs against the emperor’s demands. Trade, diplomacy and military force offer different ways to expand your influence.
The base game includes the Roman heartland of Latium and the Celtic wetlands of Albion. Your decisions shape local life: you can respect Celtic culture or enforce Roman traditions, choose deities for your islands and develop your economy through the discovery tree.

Anno 117: Pax Romana was released on 13 November 2025 for Xbox Series X|S. The official Xbox Store listing has the base game.
Who makes Anno 117: Pax Romana?

What is included in the Year 1 Pass?
The Year 1 Pass contains three expansions: Prophecies of Ash, The Hippodrome and Dawn of the Delta. The base game is required and sold separately.
Prophecies of Ash expands Latium with new land, a volcanic disaster and Vulcan as a deity. The Hippodrome adds a monument inspired by the Circus Maximus, chariot races and new specialists. The pass also includes three sigils, the Pool of Tranquility ornament and the Golden Flagship skin.
What does Dawn of the Delta add?
Ubisoft announced Dawn of the Delta’s launch on 5 November 2026. It is the third and largest expansion of Year 1, adding the province of Aegyptus with new production chains, goods, deities and characters.
