After numerous delays, Paradox Interactive announced the cancellation of its highly anticipated life management game, Life By You. Originally marketed as a Sims-like game with extensive customization options, the decision to cancel was met with disappointment from both the company and the community. Deputy CEO Mattias Lilja admitted that the game failed to meet expectations despite multiple delays aimed at improvement. The last-minute cancellation just two weeks before the planned early access launch left many disappointed, with no future release date in sight. Lilja acknowledged the difficulty of game development and promised that the company would learn from this experience to avoid similar outcomes in the future. While the players will not get a chance to experience Life By You, Paradox Interactive remains committed to delivering high-quality games in the future.
