Overview

The City Life is an open-world life simulation and vehicle-building sandbox set in a modern British town. Developed and published by SGS, this title blends adventure, simulation, city building, and racing elements into a single package.

You start with nothing, living in a small trailer community, and gradually work your way up to a proper city lifestyle. The game supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, and it was released on November 2, 2026.

Highlights

  • Start from the bottom: Begin in a trailer community with no possessions, then take on various paid jobs to earn your first wages.
  • Diverse job system: Work as a parcel delivery driver, bin collector, postal worker, taxi driver, bus operator, or hydrant maintenance worker — each job offers a different gameplay loop.
  • Vehicle ownership and customization: Buy vehicles, keep them maintained, and customize parts to suit your needs. You can even upgrade from a small shed to a full auto garage, unlocking deeper building and modification options.

Who It's For

If you enjoy life sims with a strong progression curve, or if you like tinkering with vehicles and building your own machines, The City Life offers a relaxed yet engaging sandbox. The British setting adds a distinct flavor, and the mix of driving, job simulation, and property ownership should appeal to fans of games like Car Mechanic Simulator or open-world life sims.

Since it supports multiplayer, you can also share the experience with friends.
