Paralives Announces Release Discount And Early Access Launch Plans

Here’s all the exciting things coming to Paralives in the next few days.

The Paralives team is ready to set the Early Access launch roadmap party into motion. With 4 important dates to remember as the team prepares to release their 7 year old project into the world!

First off, the team announced that big video game media outlets were sent a play to access Paralives in advance. We don’t know who those people are but we’re hoping they come into spotlight starting May 20th 😉

Afterwards, there’s going to be an 8-minute-long gameplay trailer showcase, giving spotlight to all features available in Early Access on Day 1. At the same time, the devs will also publish a 45-minute-long prerecorded Live mode gameplay session, showcasing the gameplay features even further! If you’ve been sitting on the fence about getting Paralives during Launch week this is your chance to make a decision.

After 7 years of hard work the team will unwind on May 22nd at a private barbeque party, in case you’ve been wondering. All of that will be worth it once Paralives Early Access launches on Steam May 25th, when you’ll get a chance to get the game for 10% off. There’s also going to be regional pricing applied to the discount too, so you should expect to pay around $35.99USD – or a price equivalent to your local currency.

The full post that highlights all the key moments in developing Paralives is up on their latest Patreon post. Make sure you join in for the final days until the game goes live for the first time!

What’s Coming: 5 Important Dates

May 15, 2026  –  Press Access

This morning, big video game media outlets were sent a key to play Paralives in advance. Selected influencers that are now part of our small Paralives Partner program will also gain access to the game on Monday. On Wednesday, May 20th, they will be allowed to share videos of the game as well as their first impressions. Our goal with doing that is to make sure as many people as possible learn about Paralives before it finally releases on May 25th!

Tuesday, May 19, 2026 at Noon ET  –  Gameplay Trailer and 45 minutes of Gameplay!

We’re really excited to share a brand new 8-minute-long gameplay trailer showcasing what Paralives will have to offer when it releases in Early Access, including a few new things that we’ve never shown before!

At the same time, Carina will publish a 45-minute-long prerecorded Live mode gameplay session so that you can explore the town and the gameplay systems further!

May 22, 2026

The Paralives team will gather up for a little BBQ launch party where we will eat a lot of hamburgers, and we might even cry a few tears because we can’t believe the game is launching and we’re so excited and proud!! 💃🍔

Monday, May 25, 2026 at 10AM ET

WE WILL ALL PUT OUR HANDS ON THE MOUSE AND PRESS THE ‘RELEASE’ BUTTON ON STEAM!

The game will become available for everyone on Steam in Early Access for PC and Mac at $39.99 USD with an extra 10% launch discount. Regional pricing will be activated, so the price will be adapted to your currency.

Carina will host a 3-ish hour stream on Steam to celebrate the launch! We will also publish a short launch day trailer, and we have a few other surprises in store for players

I hope they sent a review copy to lilsimsie. She would bring a lot of attention to the game, especially since she was really looking forward to it.
