Ubisoft just announced that The Anarchist, the DLC included in the Digital Deluxe Edition of Anno 1800 is out now on PC, and you can download it now.
The DLC in question is the Anarchist, a new AI character named Dr. Hugo Mercier who players can choose as an opponent. He has a unique style of building his island – including propaganda banners and speaker towers – will affect gameplay and can even potentially create riots on a player's island.
In addition to getting a new rival, players will have access to two new ornaments, more than 50 new quests with the addition of defector quests, new items, and six new achievements to unlock, so it's not exactly a small DLC.
Anno 1800 piles 20 years of Anno history and features into one package, including a story-based campaign, a highly customizable sandbox mode, and the classic Anno multiplayer experience. Anno 1800 brings back individual AI opponents, shippable trade goods, randomly generated maps, multi-session gameplay, items and more.
Anyone who has the Deluxe or Collector versions of the game will be able to download this new content today, or you can buy the thing (in the form of the deluxe pack) for $9.99.
