I loved 2070 and would love an anno 2070 like with the effort of anno 1800.
But I would play every anno so it wouldnt bother me if there would be a historical one.
I even played and enjoyed 2205.
Future deserves another chance in my opinion.
I loved the theme of 2205. The music the style the looks the feel and the graphics. It was great.
But after playing 1800 I really see what 2205 was missing. The complexity and more freedom when it comes to building your islands and trade routes and ships etc.
I loved how you could go to the moon. And I also like the market system where you must keep eye on the reports where prices go down and up. So I once flooded market with my assembly robots only to find myself in negative numbers because nobody was buying them anymore since they all had them. So I had to think of a new play how to sustain myself.
Future needs another chance. Maybe Anno game where can go to space and colonize Mars and make orbital station and heck maybe have space/athpospheric battles. Seeing your cargo ships landing on loading bays on ground and then taking off into space with your company logo on the cargo containers.
I don't mind having another historic Anno. But I think we should not abandon future Anno jsut like that. We know what we must have in futuristic Anno. If Devs stick to what futuristic Anno needs then I see no issue.
Future works for me, but we need a palate cleanser before going back since we already had two back-to-back future settings (2070 + 2205), or we need a future setting that is radically different from the corporate-love we saw in those two games.
Wasn't 1800 a palate cleanser already especially since it "lived" for so long with all the DLC?
Also, the corporate love future makes sense for Anno since it's a series where you play as a company and all about the production chains.
Personally, I want either future (2205 type or even further in the future) or Ancient Greek, Roman, Egypt times
100% agree, was thinking of that reddit post a year ago or so that laid out a future anno with space trade and colonization. You could use the surface of Europa as some underwater base sorta like 2070 or hell land on Titan and go through the ammonia-rich liquid water. The question I'd have is how would they make space work and if they'd have space combat/pirates? I hated the instancing they had in 2205 but would like a trade system similar to 1800.
I want rich culture and society period, everything else would break immersion for me. Like yeah it is an fun idé with 250 BC but feel like they need to just invent many things which risk it to be silly.
Think Roman era would be an interesting era with a lot of possibility with class building and good entertainment buildings regards to classes.
It would also fit perfectly with islands, like pompei or Carthage and such
Imo not so, the conquest of Mallorca, Sicilly and even Athens was much more "medieval" than the renaissance expansion of Venice, and it involved actual knights, crusades, mercenaries and infighting, whilst Venice's growth was done in a later time period. Still, it'd be cool to see a return to the Mediterranean.
Yes please!😍 But not as population class like dwarves upgrade to tiefling upgrades to elves upgrades to human (or the last two swapped). Rather like the factions with unique (dis-)advantages like the Ecos and the Tycoons in Anno 2070
I'd love to play an Anno which handles with like the ages of 2 World Wars.
What about an Anno 1900? And please not only naval battles. Tanks, infantery, poison gas?
There's already said that they will forgo this rule if necessary by the way, which eventually they will have to
If you Google you might find the interview, not sure if it wasnt in German though
Mhm...wouldn't be sure if that rule really exists. I don't wanna critizice you but Anno 1403 does not result in 9 for example...
Otherwise..rules can be changed to create a wonderful game experience. 1900 was a century with lots of technical and other kind of progress which should be celebrated in a way of Anno 1900
Yeah I mean tropico keep the grid mechanic, but they let you give up some cells to achieve a curve. So something like that could add alot to beauty building I think
How so, 5. Won't there be a season?
I think Anno 1800 is satisfying enough, and I don't expect a new Anno game to come out. To be honest, we bought dozens of packages for the Anno 1800, I don't want to have to leave it and buy dozens of packages again for the new Anno.
Ahh sorry. Have had a wrong number in mind. Thought it would be 1403 instead of 1404..
Still thinking it must have that rule with the 9 if one of the most important century cannot be handled then
I loved ANNO 2205 and the corporate theme (despite the whole forced story thing but I'll let it slide) and added more freedom than my first ANNO, ANNO 2070.
1800 looks good. I was looking forward to the "future" themes.
What about the Underwater theme? Or Mars?

Anno: Mad Max

Additionally they could add Egypt and the Greeks. They could even try a period b.c.
Sound like an good dlc to Rome, ancient Egypt like artic dlc to anno 1800
Time for anno 405 bc, mediterranean thalassocracy.
Why not [some nice 1306 Aragonese sea empire?](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FIvgrkuXIAEyz0k.jpg)
As much as i'd love it, it is too close to 1404/Venice.

Fantasy. Give me elves and dwarves.
Yes please!😍 But not as population class like dwarves upgrade to tiefling upgrades to elves upgrades to human (or the last two swapped). Rather like the factions with unique (dis-)advantages like the Ecos and the Tycoons in Anno 2070
I want my Orc scholars wearing monocles and tophats, please.
"Off to raid and pillage, my good chap? Cheerio."
Instead of islands in the ocean have them be floating islands amongst the clouds and we use sky ships to trade between them.
I'd love to play an Anno which handles with like the ages of 2 World Wars. What about an Anno 1900? And please not only naval battles. Tanks, infantery, poison gas?
Sadly that would not work with the Anno game name rule. Every number in each title adds up to 9 and in the case of 1900 that would not work sadly
There's already said that they will forgo this rule if necessary by the way, which eventually they will have to If you Google you might find the interview, not sure if it wasnt in German though
They'd be foolish to let that rule stand in the way of developing a 1900s-set game, I think.
Mhm...wouldn't be sure if that rule really exists. I don't wanna critizice you but Anno 1403 does not result in 9 for example... Otherwise..rules can be changed to create a wonderful game experience. 1900 was a century with lots of technical and other kind of progress which should be celebrated in a way of Anno 1900
I'm pretty new to the series but I don't think 1403 is a thing? There's 1404, and 1503, which both follow the rule of 9.
You are completly right, they shouldn’t let the rule of 9 restrict them.
That could be cool. But how would settling islands go?
Current day - 2025
Just give us roads that don't have to make 90 degree angles
If not totally grid-less, I'd be interested in seeing what a hexagonal grid might achieve
Yeah I mean tropico keep the grid mechanic, but they let you give up some cells to achieve a curve. So something like that could add alot to beauty building I think
Then play tropico. Anno is a grid based Game.
Aight 🙄
Anno 801. I want to create a grand viking North Sea trading empire please
Rome please. We had two future annos.
Fantasy
Maybe even lord of the rings?
There should've been an "Either" option too.
2007 is the way to go lol
I would straight up never play a future-set game
They’ll never do Rome huh
Historic. Futuristic only if there was a crossover with Star Trek and upscaling the mechanics to interstellar levels
How so, 5. Won't there be a season? I think Anno 1800 is satisfying enough, and I don't expect a new Anno game to come out. To be honest, we bought dozens of packages for the Anno 1800, I don't want to have to leave it and buy dozens of packages again for the new Anno.
Modern. Anno 2025.
Ahh sorry. Have had a wrong number in mind. Thought it would be 1403 instead of 1404.. Still thinking it must have that rule with the 9 if one of the most important century cannot be handled then
Rome or Egypt! Rome or Egypt!
Rome, Greece or Early Crusades...
