Anno 117: Pax Romana

Saving your progress in Anno 117 Pax Romana is simple once you know where everything lives, and it helps a lot when a big fire decides to ruin your perfect grid.

The Short Answer Section

You can save your game manually at any time, and the game also creates autosaves on its own. You can change the autosave timer, load older saves, delete old files, and even use cloud saves through your Ubisoft account.

Digging Into The Save Tools

Saving in Anno 117 works around two main systems, manual saves and autosaves. Manual saves let you drop a snapshot whenever something cool happens, like finishing your first Villa. Autosaves happen in the background and help you if you forget to click the button.

You can make a manual save by opening the pause menu and selecting Save Game. This works the same in Campaign and Endless. Autosaves run every few minutes by default. They do not interrupt gameplay and they stack normally.

Adjusting Autosave Timing

If the autosave timer feels too slow or too spammy, you can change it. Open the main menu, go to Options, then Game. Look for the Save section. There is an Autosave Interval setting where you can switch to different time presets.

Shorter timers give more fallbacks. Longer timers keep your save list cleaner. Pick what fits your run.

Working With Save Files In The Menu

All save management happens through the Load Game menu. You can open it from the main menu or from inside your city. From there you scroll through your profiles, autosaves, and manual saves.

  • To start a new run, choose New Game and pick Campaign or Endless

  • To load an older run, choose Load Game on PC or Load Savegame on console

  • To remove a file, highlight it and choose Delete on PC or hold Delete Savegame on console

There is no hard limit on saves, but console players are limited by cloud storage space.

PC Save File Locations

If you need to move saves or back them up, the default folder is the same across every launcher

C:\Users[Username]\Documents\Anno 117 Pax Romana\accounts

This applies to Steam, Epic, GB-Proxy, and Ubisoft Connect.

Cross Save And Cloud Sync

Anno 117 supports full cross progression. You can upload one save to the cloud and load it on another platform as long as your Ubisoft account is the same.

To upload a save
Open Load Game, select a file, and choose Crossplay on PC or Upload Cross Save on console.

To download a save
Open Load Game, pick the Cross Save profile, and choose Download.

Only one cross save slot can be active at a time, so swap carefully.

Final Blurb

Saving in Anno 117 Pax Romana is easy once you know where the menus sit, and the game gives you plenty of space to store long campaigns. Keeping a clean list also makes it painless to roll back when a Great Fire decides to ruin your vibe.
