Nintendo released Tomodachi Life in 2013 for 3DS – a quirky and, frankly, bizarre virtual social sim that gained a cult following in the years since. Cries of “bring back Tomodachi Life” have been answered with the reveal of Living The Dream, a new installment coming next year.
Like the first game, Living the Dream lets players create Mii characters and watch them live their lives, only this time the game takes place on a tropical island. The game’s charm once again comes from the strange interactions that can unfold between your Mii and those of your friends. From furiously lobbing random objects at each other to even invading each other’s dreams in funny/terrifying ways (like becoming a giant), the series’ trademark wackiness (including its text-to-speech style voiceovers) seems preserved and dialed up a few degrees.
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream launches on Switch in 2026. You can check out our review of Tomodachi Life here.
