There are a lot of simulators out there and developer Simteract is making its mark with Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator. Some may be similar but this one looks to offer something different to the genre. The game is coming out in 2023 on PC and consoles.
Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator is part of the “Life” series, which has long invited fans of profession simulators to be part of a fulfilling and stress-free universe. In addition, these Life games also hope to show the business management aspect of professions and teach fans how to grow a company through a simplification of the real world.
In Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator, players take on the role of a taxi driver working in the Spanish metropolis. Much like in real life, there will be a lot of things happening, like the usual traffic jams, bumpy roads, harsh weather, and even impatient passengers. Let’s not forget occasional accidents.
For this driving simulation game, players take control behind the wheel and complete ride-hailing jobs around the city by taking passengers to their final destination safely and on time.
It’s not just purely driving since players are tasked with managing their own taxi company. That means they need to be responsible for paying fines and bills, fixing the car, and hiring and managing a crew of professional drivers.
In a statement, Nacon Head of Marketing David Talmat explained that taking in Taxi Life was an easy decision since it had a great concept that gamers are going to love. He added that having a city to explore and not limiting the game to just driving is what they wanted, particularly in Life games.
Meanwhile, Simteract CEO Marcin Jaśkiewicz revealed that they had realized it was an ambitious project. He went on to say that in the game, the objective was to, among others, be able to showcase the skills of the team.
