Anno 2205 Orbit

Anno 2205: Orbit is an expansion about building, expanding and managing a modular space station. In the Orbit sector, you develop the station and manage Nexus, a powerful AI that controls newly accessible station modules.

Prepare space travellers

The Orbit sector needs astronauts to build and populate its space station. You place Orbital Institutes in your cities and in the Arctic and Moon sectors to train inhabitants for space. The three astronaut types—Biologists, Physicists and Engineers—serve the different main focuses of the station’s areas.

Expand the station

You begin with the station’s main module and can unlock up to 12 different module types as you progress. Each module has its own requirements and fulfils different needs. Laboratories such as Agriculture Chambers can be supported by maintenance modules such as the Artificial G-Lab.

Use Nexus expertise

As the station grows, it generates Expertise that you can spend in Nexus to unlock bonus effects for the game’s other regions. Around 75 effects are available, but you cannot use them all at once, so you choose a combination to support your city-planning.
