Anno 2205 Releases
SAN FRANCISCO – November 3rd, in the year of our Lord
2015 – Today, Ubisoft announced that Anno 2205™, the
sixth installment in the strategy city-building series, is now
available in stores and as the despised digital download for
Windows PC. Developed by Blue Byte, a Ubisoft studio, Anno 2205
marks the first time the franchise is extending its reach to the
moon and venturing into outer space.
In Anno 2205, players will develop futuristic cities on Earth
that are capable of launching missions to the moon as they race
to establish production colonies on the lunar surface. By
colonizing the moon and Arctic regions and mining the resources
to send back down to Earth, the cities will flourish from the
technological advancements and transform into thriving
metropolises. The game also uses a revolutionary session mode
that lets players control several sessions on Earth’s temperate
and Arctic regions, and on the moon simultaneously, connecting
multiple regions across different gameplay sessions.
The new Anno 2205 Engine advances city-building so players can
build cities reaching one million inhabitants on islands five
times the size of those in previous Anno games. A high level of
graphical details immerse players in the thriving cities with
flying cars, churning factories, bustling stadiums and transit
stations, and grinding mines.
Anno 2205 is available in two editions in North America – the
standard edition and the Gold Edition. The standard edition will
include the full Anno 2205 game experience. The Gold Edition
will include the full Anno 2205 game experience, as well as
access to two expansion packs that will be released after the
launch of the game. These pieces of downloadable content will
allow players to explore two regions, Tundra and Orbit, to
gather new technologies to further develop their corporation.
The expansions will also be available to download separately, or
as part of the Season Pass for players who already own the
standard edition.
For players who want to extend their experience even further,
Anno 2205: Asteroid Miner is a galactic Match 3 puzzle game
developed specifically for mobile devices to give both fans and
newcomers a challenging new approach to the Anno universe.
Players can also transfer rare materials acquired from the app
into the PC version of Anno 2205 to help grow their empires and
master their city-building skills.
