Anno 1800 free to play until August 25th and DLC info
- Thread starter Forerunner
- Start date
No real issues with uPlay (as compared to major villain in the space) - but damn, can you release it on Steam please? I need those lovely achievements in my Steam library! I'll happily double dip again!
I have one. Why you gotta drop this on me right as I get back to college😭😭😭
Those lulls as you wait for new resources and goods to come in are perfect for studying! (Best of luck with your courses)
And no word about the damn coop mode. It's the one thing me and my friend are waiting for to get back into the game.
We didn't put it in the trailer as we can't give the concrete date yet, but we hope that we can soon share the date and details about coop (definitely after Botanica and day&night though).
Yes, yes it is...I got hooked for a bit. Had to stop playing awhile because it was one of those cases of "Just 5 more minutes" and then I look at the clock at it's 2AM and I need to be work at 8AM six hours later.
I do endulge on my weekends though but I cannot play Anno 1800 during my work week. The oddest part is no other game has ever given me this issue before in the sense of completely losing track of time.
Would prefer it sooner of course but I appreciate the heads up.
That's not totally correct ...
Assassin's Creed Odyssey (and some other AC games), South Park, etc. have Steam achievements
Downloaded the trial version. Loved it so I bought it. Total time sink.
Only issue was I couldn't transfer my trial version save to the full game, but it gave me an excuse to sit here and play more while I watch preseason football.

Apologies for that. The reason is that the trial is limited to the first three residential tiers. if you were to carry your progress over into the main game with all content suddenly unlocked, it would really mess with the AI.
I'm out of the house for a weekend... But I'll try to find an hour today to try it. (an hour probably won't let me even finish the tutorial, but at least I'll know how the game works on my PC).
uPlay+ is free next month FYI (need to sign up in the launcher though), so I'd suggest to just wait for that. I wanna play the story mode.
How big was that bloomin' turnip again? It's been a while since I've played so I may have forgotten.
I had some fun with it but workers/population not being cross-island kinda killed the longevity for me. (I know about the commuter hub building, I don't like it)
No, you can buy the DLC as well, check out the in-game news in the main menu. It was super important to the team that all players get all updates and content (free and paid) on the same date, regardless of platform or store used.
Oh that makes me really happy! I'm looking forward for the DLC!
Has this game gone on sale before? Downloading the trial now after watching some gameplay videos. Really interested in it but 40 is too much for me atm :(
Can the Sunken Treasures DLC campaign be done in Sandbox or do you need to complete the normal campaign? I know it says it starts at 100 Artisans or so, but that's right about when the campaign ends. I'm not really sure how it works within the mechanics of the game when you get a giant area none of the AI gets to touch.
Yes you can play all Sunken Treasures content in the sandbox mode. You just need to reach 700 artisans to unlock the expedition that kicks it off.
