The first paid DLC for Blue Byte’s Anno 1800 is now live with Sunken Treasures. It sees players tracking the queen, who’s gone missing, and heading to Cape Trelawney. There are new quests to undertake, a new capital to establish, and much, much more. Check out the trailer below.

Sunken Treasures features a third session, and players will discover small, medium, and large islands that can be colonized. You’ll also run into a new NPC named Old Nate, who will provide you with the diving bell. This can be used to explore sunken wrecks and engage in the new crafting mechanics. Trade carefully though – Old Nate isn’t exactly the straightest of arrows. More than 100 new items are also being added, which includes new zoo and museum sets. Players will also get new inventions and specialists.

Containing a new storyline that’s roughly six hours long with “dozens” of new quests, the DLC can be purchased stand-alone or with the Season Pass. Conversely, new players can pick up the Gold Edition which includes Anno 1800 Digital Deluxe Edition with the Season Pass.

Other content coming in Sunken Treasures a third session with small, medium and large islands to explore and colonize. There’s also a new continental island that will be three times as large as the base game’s biggest island. If that weren’t enough, crafting and the new diving bell (where you’ll explore sunken wrecks for materials) will be added courtesy of a new NPC trader named Old Nate.

New specialists, new inventions and new quest items, along with new sets for the zoo and museum, will also be added. There’s over 100 new items in total to sort through. Game Update 4 will also be going live with the DLC and Blue Byte is promising “a thing or two that the community has been waiting for” which will be free to all base game players.

Ubisoft Blue Bye’s Anno 1800 is out for PC and offers a pretty good city-building/economic experience (check out GamingBolt’s official review to know why). If you’re wondering what’s next though, the developer has announced a Season Pass containing three DLC drops. Check them out in the new trailer below.

The first is Sunken Treasures, which takes players to a new European session and a new island on the hunt for treasure. Botanica is next, offering a modular Botanical Garden for gaining new items and rewards. Players can also create the Musical Pavilion for playing music from the previous games in their city.

Finally, there’s The Passage, which heads to the Arctic Circle and the Northwest Passage. Climate is fairly rough and players will need to create an outpost, along with creating a new production chain to survive. Along with paid DLC, there will be free content drops, like the Statistics Building for properly tracing production chains, co-op, and Community Challenges for new icons and skins.
