Video Games Where You Can Have Kids & Babies

This article is over 5 years old and may contain outdated information

Having kids and babies in video games are awesome; you can make them look exactly like you or the other parent, and they can do some pretty awesome things, like join you on the battlefield in Fire Emblem or help tend to your farm in Stardew Valley.

These are 5 video games where you can have kids, babies, and children.

My Time At Portia

My Time At Portia is a farming sim where you have to take care of a busted down workshop that’s entrusted to you by your grandfather. You can grow crops, make friends, and taking on commissions to get some extra cash.

But you can also romance, date, marry, and even have kids with several of the NPC’s that are single and ready to mingle. My Time At Portia lets you date whoever you want to date regardless of gender or race.

Once you get past the initial stages of the relationship and make it to the last level, Full Devotion, you can finally have a baby with your spouse. If you’re a same-sex couple, you can adopt a child, but babies have to be taken care of once they’re brought into the world.

The baby that you have through a normal pregnancy will have mixed features from both parents, just like in real life!

The Sims

The Sims has always been great at simulating a real adult human life. You get to go work, take care of your pets, pay a mortgage, go to school, and even have kids –if you so choose to do so.

In the Sims 4, you can date pretty much anyone that you want, as long as they like you back of course. Once you eventually adopt or have kids of your own, the child has to be fed, washed and changed like any other normal baby.

And once the baby becomes a toddler, they can then go to school and partake in after-school activities, as any kid should.

Stardew Valley

When you’re not tending to the good ‘ol farm in Stardew Valley, you can go on dates with select members of the town and romance them until they become your lawfully wedded spouse.

If you date someone one of the same sex, you will be able to have children due to adoption and opposite-sex couples will have children organically.

Just like real life, the first few moments of the child’s life will have him sleeping in a crib, and then go on to sleep in a normal bed in the nursery. Stardew Valley really tries to give you an authentic experience when it comes to getting married and having kids.

Harvest Moon: Light of Hope

In Harvest Moon: Light of Hope, there are a total of 5 eligible marriage candidates per gender that you can romance into a marriage, and then you get the chance to have children with them.

The only bad thing about being married to someone in Light of Hope is that once you do get married, your partner will not be able to help you out with the farm.

We have no idea why that is, but let’s just assume it’s because they have to stay home and tend to the children,

Fire Emblem Fates

fire emblem fates,

What’s really neat about Fire Emblem Fates is that not only can you romance and eventually marry other characters in this RPG, but you can also have babies with that person and then that kid can be placed into your army, inheriting skills from the parents.

It might sound kind of rough to throw your child into war once they can get their hands on a weapon, but this is Fire Emblem and these kids have to be ready to throw down at a moments notice. When your parents meet and form a relationship on a battlefield, that’s just what happens.
