Paradox is working on a direct competitor to The Sims.
There's a new challenger to The Sims on the way, and this one is led by a former Sims developer. During its showcase today, Paradox delivered a short teaser for a game called Life By You being developed by Paradox Tectonic and led by former Sims studio head and Second Life studio CEO Rod Humble.
Today's announcement video above was a very quick teaser giving the suggestion of green, suburban neighborhoods, house construction, and simulated people doing real people-y stuff like hugging and microwaving a meal. Yup, it sure looks like Life By You is angling to be a direct competitor to The Sims—North American suburbs and all.
That's about all the initial reveal gives us to go on, though you can frame hunt down hints about the building interface and specific home decor styles. There's a vaguely '70s vibe going on in the teaser home interior. My own hope is that the strategy buffs of Paradox come out of the gate with an equally deep level of interpersonal simulation that The Sims 4 is only just now tackling in its upcoming Growing Together expansion.
