Youtubers Life 2 is a life simulator, where you can become the most trendy youtuber in the world. Wahoo, that sells dreams right? Explore the town of NewTube, home to all of the planet's top YouTubers, and become one of them.
The first game, Youtubers Life, was a rather pioneering game that has enjoyed good success over its last 5 years (over 12.000 positive reviews on Steam). In this new opus, the concept is broadened to become an "open world" game (be careful, it's not RDR2 either) which invites you to discover the city of NewTube as you see fit. The game begins by starting your own channel and creating viral content: record, edit, publish videos and above all don't forget to check their performance through your in-game mobile apps.
The rest of the gameplay revolves around exploring the city, where you can buy new items, exercise, visit local players, hang out with your friends… There is a social side to it. Sims, but nowhere near as extensive. You can recruit other YouTubers to develop your network. Each Youtuber buddy has his own file with the subjects they like, their profession, what they hate, etc.
For a good career as a YouTuber, it is important to keep abreast of new trends. The player must therefore stay abreast of the topics that are popular at all times in the city. It could be a location, a recently released game, a celebrity, a fair, or some other ongoing event. As you cover the various topics and gain views with your videos, your popularity will increase.
And the gameplay revolves around that popularity. It is not only the publication of videos that will be at the origin. The player can also post images on Instalife (the Instagram Wish) and participate in events like PlayCon, Mantendo Conference (Mario must be calling his lawyer), Developer Day.
