Life by You is officially cancelled.

The developers decided to abandon the long-suffering “killer” The Sims.
Life by You is officially cancelled.

In 2023, the game Life by You was announced, developed by Paradox Interactive in the genre of a life simulator similar to The Sims. However, the game's release was delayed several times. Finally, the company decided to cancel the project due to the current state of the game. The developers admitted the failure and expressed regret for not meeting the expectations of gamers.

The authors of the project noted that the path to achieving the desired quality and functionality of the game looked too uncertain and lengthy, which led to the decision to curtail production. The game was announced in March 2023 with plans for an Early Access release, and development was led by Rod Humble, known for his work on Second Life, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3.

Life by You was last delayed indefinitely to May 2024 when the team said it needed more time for improvements and polish. The project was conceived as one of the most flexible and easily modifiable life simulators, allowing players to create their own scenarios and dialogues.
