Five games form the basis of the new "LIFE"
collection
Lesquin, 18 March 2021 - NACON
and its partner studios are pleased to announce a new collection of
video game simulators focusing on everyday life. Grouped under the
new LIFE label, there are currently five games
being developed to launch this new publishing category:
Train Life, Hotel Life,
Chef Life, Surgeon Life and
Architect Life.
With these games, NACON is strengthening its
publishing position in this segment while uniting them under a
single brand. In these LIFE simulators, players can experience the
life of a professional, such as a surgeon, award-winning chef or
architect, through varied gameplay that combines planning, managing
and performing specific tasks related to the relevant
profession.
"Having emerged just over 10 years ago, the
first-person simulator genre, which requires management and skill,
is becoming increasingly popular because it is attracting a growing
audience, both on PC and consoles. The language of video games is
now well known and enjoyed by a larger number of users. New genres
and narratives can emerge that meet the expectations of gamers and
new audiences alike. By creating the LIFE series, and partnering
with specialist studios and consultants for each profession
represented, we hope to offer players new experiences. Using the
media tools at our disposal, we can bring to life the daily lives
of all the professions we dream about." said Benoit Clerc,
Head of Publishing at NACON.
These are the first five games in the
LIFE range, coming in 2021 and 2022:
- Train Life – A Railway Simulator (Simteract) -
As well as an ultra-realistic train driving experience, for the
first time in a railway simulator you also manage the development
of your company: hire conductors, buy locomotives, choose contracts
to take on and roll out your network across Europe.
- Hotel Life – A Resort Simulator (RingZero Game
Studio) - Hotel Life is a hotel simulator that takes you
behind the scenes of an idyllic holiday destination. Players
manage the day-to-day running of the hotel, increase its reputation
and support guests as expertly as possible from check-in to
checkout, while ensuring they are kept entertained through a
variety of daily activities.
- Chef Life - A Restaurant
Simulator (Cyanide Studio) - Chef Life puts you in total
control of all aspects of a restaurant. From buying ingredients to
plating dishes, you must serve the best food while supervising your
teams, designing the decor and managing the service.
- Surgeon Life – A Hospital Simulator (RingZero
Game Studio) – Players become managers of a private clinic. In
addition to performing surgical procedures, you must also manage
the care teams and attract new patients.
- Architect Life – A Building Simulator
(SimFabric) - In Architect Life, you work on all stages of the
construction and design of your dream home (and those of your
clients). This includes drawing up plans, budgeting and hiring
labourers, among other tasks. More than a simple design game, you
must ensure the smooth running of the site to meet the contractual
specifications.
More information about each title will be
shared at a later date.
