Fans of Ubisoft’s latest city-builder title Anno 1800 have a lot to look forward to in this coming year. Along with teasing the release of Season 4, they have announced quite of bit of news. First of which is that the UNEP Choice Award-winning game mode, Eden Burning, will be available for free on December 14. Then, throughout the year 2022, as part of Season 4, they will release three new DLC’s.

If you aren’t aware of it yet, Eden Burning introduces a new game mode: Scenarios. The Eden Burning Scenario features a rogue-like mechanic that teaches players the dangers of an exploitative economy for the environment. Players must finish an industrial project without destroying their ecosystem while weighing the impacts of using renewable versus non-renewable resources. Here their decisions will matter as the outcome of these choices will greatly impact the environment, either for better or for worse.

Anno 1800 recently surpassed two million players, and to celebrate this milestone, players will receive two ship skins with the upcoming Game Update, one for the Battlecruiser and one for the Ship of the Line, as a gift. They have also partnered with a social enterprise funding reforestation and other carbon reduction projects known as Ecologi. Starting December 14, players can buy the Plant A Tree DLC for $2.99 to receive a new ornamental tree to plant in their cities. A minimum of $1 of every purchase of the Plant A Tree DLC will be forwarded by Ubisoft to Ecologi. After March 31, 2022, the DLC will be removed from the in-game store, but players who own the DLC will retain it in their accounts.
