Home Tycoon is a Simcity-like city building game that is coming to PlayStation Home, and it's going to be free to play.

The game comes from Hellfire Games, a studio which has a surprisingly menacing logo for such an inviting game. Along with building the city, you will also be able to explore it as a pedestrian, drive vehicles around, and take on the role of a police officer and a fireman. You can check out the trailer below.

It's coming soon, but that's all Sony was willing to offer as far as a release date goes.

Coming to what now?

I gave up on PS Home a while ago. Does it still make you wait in virtual lines for all the fun stuff? If they got rid of that I might give it another chance.

I'll be holding out for Sim City's release in early 2013.

Okay, I am calling it: a high-def version of Cityville (energy and cosmetic buildings will be how they make money).
