I hope it's good. I loved Caesar 3. But it'll never be on that level. It's probably gonna be a diluted ubisoft game.
But I see that at least part of the devs are from Blue-Byte, the ones that handled Anno 1800. So maybe ... not really.

Anno 117 was revealed on-stage by developers Ubisoft Mainz - one third of series devs Ubisoft Blue Byte - during tonight’s Ubisoft Forward showcase.

I haven't played ANNO 1800 but I was a fan of Anno 1404 and Anno 2070.

From what I played it seems the series doesn't change all that much.

I'm surprised Ubisoft even still makes anything like this. At least it's not yet another first/third-person action title.
They also recently shipped a watered-down version of the Settlers. From what I hear nothing like the classical games, but they've been pumping those out.
Everything except HOMM :(

Yep it was called The Settlers: New Allies and it's not rated well.
I used to play those as well but after the sixth game lost interest.

It got heavy criticism by magazines.

This new Anno game is new to me. I read this for the very first time.

If you enjoyed 1800's gently gripping mix of city-planning, production-chain linking, and nautical exploration, Anno 117 delivers these fundamentals in an equally satisfying manner. But its later-game ideas, the military management and the concept of cultural assimilation, that will ultimately determine how well Anno 117 captures its Roman setting. Previewed by Rick Lane.

The Anno series has been blending the satisfaction of city builder economy micromanagement with the historic grounding of a classic RTS since 1998. Now, Ubisoft returns with the first new entry in six years, Anno 117: Pax Romana, which pits you as the governor of burgeoning Roman settlement. PC Gamer's Online Editor Fraser Brown recently travelled to Rome to play a preview build of the game, and found out that tanking the economy can be just as fun as mastering it!
