New Citizen is a multiplayer game centered around a community, which builds upon the concept of creating standalone role-playing games that various modding communities have been practicing for years on other games. This game aims to be the first dedicated life simulation game that enables these communities to come together under one title, where they can construct their ideal communities or join existing ones. At the start of the game, players will receive a predetermined amount of money and a lifetime of opportunities.
