BitLife Version 1.27 Guide: Multiple Save Slots, Doctor Consultations, Circumcision, Funeral Planning, and More

Candywriter has just released a surprise new update for BitLife that introduces a ton of new content. However, the big surprise is, well, everything. Candywriter hasn’t revealed any information whatsoever, and has left the community to figure out the new features.

Well, Candywriter did reveal one thing: save slots. You can now have multiple BitLives running concurrently, allowing multiple players to play on the same device or for you to have multiple BitLives on the go at the same time.

We’ve scoured Twitter to figure out what else is new, and have rounded up everything we’ve found below. We’ve also discussed how the save slots work for those that aren’t sure.

If it’s something else you’re looking for, head on over to our Complete Guide to BitLife for links on every guide we’ve written so far.

How do Multiple Save Slots Work?

At any point during a BitLife, you can start a new game from the menu and your previous life will save automatically provided it’s at least one year old. Basically, make sure you age at least a year on your current BitLife before starting a new one if you want to ensure the previous is saved.

What’s New in Version 1.27?

• Doctor consultations: Doctors now have reputations, which means you can see if they’re good or bad before asking their medical opinion.
• Circumcision: You can now have your children circumcised. Which is just lovely, isn’t it?
• Funeral planning: If a family member passes away, you can plan their funeral. Or you can get someone else to do it. Or you can skip it. It all depends on how much of a terrible human being you are. You can also decide what to do with the body and travel to funerals if the person lives abroad.
