One of the more low key of reveals during Ubisoft's press conference was a little title called 'Anno 2205', a city simulator much in the vein of titles like Sims City and others. The game tasks the player with improving their utopian society to the point of extra-terrestrial travel - eventually leading them to colonise the moon and even move beyond the solar system as we know it. Whilst the project isn't going to turn as many heads as the other triple-A titles to have been shown off today, it looks as though Anno will be a robust simulator that will bring a captivating world with it. Anno 2205 drops November 3rd this year. Best start practicing your mining techniques before then! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfM6qAsl1Pw
