[p]Happy New Year, Anno Community![/p][p]We hope you had a great start into 2026.[/p][p] [/p][p]The year will be filled with Anno content and news, let’s get started right away with an overview of the next couple of months:[/p][p]On January 29th, we’ll release patch 1.3.2 with several more bug fixes as well as balance changes – the full patch notes will be available on release day.[/p][p]After that, more content and fixes will drop in the second half of February. More details in a few weeks.[/p][p][/p][p]Additionally, we’ll have several DevBlogs lined up covering not only the topics of music and sound (originally presented in a livestream in December by our Audio Team) but also insights into the work of the UI and Art teams on various aspects.[/p][p]Expect more details into our plans for 2026 and – later – also the DLC in the coming weeks and months. We’re also looking forward to showing you more in dedicated livestreams on our Twitch channel in addition to these blogs.[/p][p][/p][p]Finally, a few words on the topic of snow:[/p][p]The snow intended as an easter egg for the holidays was more intense for several of you than planned, and was therefore deactivated on PC on the 25th. Unfortunately, it was not possible to do the same on consoles and we apologize for the inconveniences this has caused over the last weeks for everyone playing on PlayStation or Xbox.[/p][p]The topic will be revisited this year in preparation for the next holiday season to provide a more enjoyable experience for everyone.[/p]
