‘Cities: Skylines 2’ and 9 More Immersive World-Building Games Coming This Year

With 2015’s Cities: Skylines, Paradox Games completely stole the “building a city” genre away from the Sim City franchise, and now the company seems to be aiming at The Sims with just announced Life By You. Whether The Sims or Life By You “count” as city-builders is an open question, but in both you design houses, manage resources, and maximize citizens’ happiness, so they’re pulling from the same toolbox.

Where to play it: More details on Life By You will be announced on March 20, 2023.
