Anno 117: Pax Romana is a city-builder game, which means it’s not only targeted at players who enjoy management or simulation games. Although decorating the city is a minor business in the actual gameplay, players can manage their city and ensure it looks aesthetically pleasing. The feel of decorating the land will be more apparent once players try entering the third-person mode in Anno 117: Pax Romana, as they can explore the city from the residents’ perspective.
How To Enter First Person Mode In Anno 117 Pax Romana
To enter the exploration or third-person mode in Anno 117: Pax Romana, you need to press the following:
- Keyboard: CTRL + Shift + R
- Xbox Controller: Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A
- PS Controller: Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, circle, X
After pressing the corresponding buttons, players will be transported to the area of the map they’re currently seeing. It will be from a third-person perspective, though some actions can put them in first-person mode, like when riding a carriage.
What To Do In Exploration Mode In Anno 117 Pax Romana
The exploration mode in Anno 117: Pax Romana is a fun way for players to experience the city they built from the perspective of its residents. You can run around, check out the buildings, the streets, and decorations, and watch other citizens go about their days or do some shenanigans. Some animals are also interactable, but unfortunately, petting is not possible (though you can see other citizens pet some animals).

Other than for exploration, the first-person mode in Anno 117: Pax Romana holds no purpose in the management gameplay, as you can’t do anything except walk around. Nevertheless, it’s great for players who love to decorate their city or wish to take a snapshot of the area from a more presentable perspective.
