Can I Run Anno 2205?

Blue Byte released Anno 2205 in 2015. It is a simulation strategy game, published by Ubisoft. It offers a single player campaign. There are 198 achievements to chase. Its Metacritic score stands at 72. Its Steam review count passes 6 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. 6 languages are covered by the store listing.

Setting and environment

Players spend their time in a science fiction setting, moving through a city the player lays out. 13 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. It is played in three dimensions. Simulation heavy building games lean harder on the processor as the map fills, so late game performance rarely matches the opening hours.

Why Anno 2205 is demanding

A 64 bit version of Windows is required. Anno 2205 takes about 35 GB of disk space. System memory expectations are modest at 8 GB.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
