The team over at Paradox Tectonic has announced that its upcoming life simulator Life by You will be launching into Early Access on June 4 this year — and, if that sounds like something you've heard before, it's because we've actually known the date for a couple of months already!

If you're wondering why a studio would go out of their way to re-announce something it already said — and relatively recently, too — the answer lies between the lines of the press release. What they've actually said is that "Life by You is ready for early access" (emphasis mine), and the intention is probably to differentiate this from the last two early access releases for the game, which caught delays.

The highly touted Sims-alike was originally announced in March 2023 for a mid-September early access release the same year, only to be pushed back to March 2024 at the end of July. Then that March date was put back again to June 4 in early February of this year. Both of these delay announcements came around five or six weeks before the intended launch which — oh look, is just about where we are now! So, it seems like Paradox Tectonic just wants to reaffirm that we should keep that date seriously cleared on our calendars, after its last couple of rain checks.
