Life by You delayed again, just 2 weeks before early access launch

May 21, 2024 8:55 AM

The much-anticipated life simulation game Life by You, a strong competitor to The Sims, has been delayed once again. Paradox Interactive announced that the early access launch initially planned for June 4 is now postponed with no new release date given. This update surprises fans, especially since the developers seemed confident about meeting the original deadline just weeks ago. The delay is attributed to the need for additional development time, and Paradox's new deputy CEO emphasized the importance of having a solid plan before setting a new release window. This delay adds to the growing uncertainty for fans of the life simulation genre, with multiple exciting titles in the works but no firm release dates.

Why was Life by You delayed again?

Life by You was delayed to allow for additional development time. The developers chose not to commit to a new release date to avoid further uncertainty.

Life by You, created by Paradox Interactive, is a new entry in the life simulation genre aiming to compete with established titles like The Sims. Paradox Interactive, known for their strategy games, is venturing into this genre with high expectations. Meanwhile, The Sims 4, despite nearing its 10-year mark, continues to dominate the market with planned updates and content, keeping its community engaged until its successor, The Sims 5 (Project Rene), is released.

Wow, another delay for Life by You, just when everyone was gearing up for June — really shows that even with all the hype and high expectations, devs gotta make sure things are just right. Maybe it's a bummer for now, but in the end, a polished game is always better than a rushed one. 🤷‍♂️
