Ubisoft announced last year that Anno 1800 would be making the jump from PC to consoles, earlier this morning via a live stream, they revealed when. Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 owners will be able to embrace the industrial age on March 16th.

Anno 1800 allows you to construct large Metropoles, managing a thriving economy, and protecting your creations from others. To guide the cities to prosperity, you will need to learn to adapt to any situation that arises.

Players will also find ample opportunity to prove their skills as you can create huge cities, plan logistic networks, settle lush new continents, send out expeditions around the globe, and dominate opponents by diplomacy, trade, or warfare.

As with most games these days, Anno 1800 for console can be picked up in either the standard mode or the deluxe. The Standard version includes the base game, while the Deluxe version includes the base game and three cosmetic packs featuring new items to add to your growing cities: the Pedestrian Zone Pack, Amusements Pack, and Vibrant Cities Pack. Those who pre-order or purchase the game before April 16 will also be granted the Early Adopter Offer, containing the Imperial and Console Founder packs, as well as a digital artbook and selected soundtrack.
