Acclaimed Industrial Revolution city builder, Anno 1800, gets its first paid DLC expansion this month in the form of Sunken Treasure, and developer Blue Byte has detailed the new activities, including shipwreck hunting and crafting, it will bring when it arrives on 30th July.
Sunken Treasure, which can be purchased individually or part of Anno 1880’s season pass, introduces a new, six-hour storyline with “dozens” of new quests – accessible as soon as players reach the 700 artisans milestone – and a new continental session known as Cape Trelawney.
Trelawney’s primary new landmass (which is joined by small, medium, and large islands) is packed with fertile earth and resources, and is three times the size of Anno 1800’s current largest island. Blue Byte says it’s been designed specifically, at the behest of the community, to deliver a more sandbox-like space that enables players to experiment more liberally, free from the space and resource restrictions of existing locations, as they build a prosperous metropolis.
