Anno 2070 is a singleplayer and multiplayer bird's-eye view building and strategy game in the Anno series.
SolidShield DRM was removed from Steam and Uplay versions of the game on July 8, 2020.[1]
The game no longer requires a constant internet connection. Playable offline.[2]
Online services were scheduled to shut down on September 1, 2022[3], but later retracted as Ubisoft Mainz prepared an update to maintain the game's online services beyond that date and created a 64-bit build. Update 3.0 was released on September 7th, 2022 and multiplayer functionality is fully maintained.[4]

|
The game seems to be incompatible with overlays. Steam and Uplay do not cause issues, but a lot of other software, such as third-party screenshot makers, antialiasing utilities like MacType, cause crashes on startup. Disable or close them beforehand. |
- This issue is caused by using the program Actual Multiple Monitors for multi-monitor setups.
Close said program or add Anno2070.exe as an exclusion in the Window Settings Tab.[citation needed]
