Life by You has been announced by Paradox Tectonic, which looks to be a new take on the life sim from their fledgeling studio that will be revealed more fully in a separate stream on 20th March. For now, here’s a little teaser trailer.
Paradox Tectonic is based in Berkeley, California, having been founded in 2019 with Rod Humble as the studio lead. Humble has a storied career, but is most notable in this context for his contributions to The Sims 2 and The Sims 3.
