Life by You, the upcoming life sim gunning for The Sims' crown, has had its Early Access launch delayed a third time.
An updatefrom publisherParadox Interactive’s deputy CEO Mattias Lilja reads: “After much consideration, we regret to announce that we have decided to retract Life by You’s Early Access release date, previously set for June 4th. This was not an easy decision, especially since we understand the anticipation and excitement that many players have for the game. However, we believe that additional development time is needed.”
Unlikeprevious delays, Paradox isn’t providing a new release date as it isn’t certain it would be able to meet one just yet. It’s also unclear exactly why Life by You is being delayed yet again. When it was delayed to June 4, Paradox said it had to “refine” the visuals, specifically the character models, and tweak things to “further improve gameplay.” This time around, however, no specific reason was given.
“We will provide more information as soon as possible, until then we want to sincerely thank you for your continued support and patience,” Lilja said.
