Any alternative games?

[DutchRobin]

Any upcoming alternative games?

[💛🐠Schluppdidupp🍀🍄]

Paralives,
Vivaland,
Alter Life

but the most promising game of these for my taste is Paralives which will be released in Early Access in 2025 . You can check their sites here:

Inzoi ia a good alternative too

A game that will be released this year for Pc will bring all Sims and the original to their knees.
Forget Para Lives which is due to be released in 2025. Paradox has probably canceled the game for a reason. They must have heard about inZOI and realized that we can't do anything about it.

Release: Late 2024

Is the best alternative.

I've yet to see enough about Inzoi to convince me it is a true contend, for me at least. All the "gameplay footage" is very brief videos showcasing animations rather than actual gameplay, and with no sound either.

As yet there is no information about the game really, and while the characters and environment (and animations) do look amazing, there is only surface customisation on the people, and we don't know anything much about interactions or gameplay yet.

I am watching it of course, but so far it looks, to me, more like a game version of Insta, or a selfie-simulator. Hope I am proved wrong as more details are released.

I'm more interested on Jake Solomon's(creator of XCOM: Enemy Unknown and XCOM 2) game which heavily influenced on 2000s TV shows such as Gilmore Girl.

If you are ok with more pixel-like graphic Littlesimworld could be an option. They had a demo but it was just the tutorial.

Def looks like what paradox was trying to imitate.

Vivaland is another sims style game that is planned for release this year. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1976830/Vivaland/

Alter Life looks like a scam, iv seen a similar trailer from another abandoned game using the exact same character creators.

No, Its a direct competitor to The Sims.

InZoi is the only true next-gen sims game

"Next gen", but not in the good way. It is a better looking Sims 4.
