In anticipation of the continuation of the wonderful series from Electronic Arts and Maxis, players do not stop presenting, discussing and reading news about The Sims 5, which will definitely be released, given the announcement of the new part.
The Sims 5
This name refers to the renaissance of the series – with the release of The Sims 5, the franchise is waiting for a real revival. At least, that's what the authors of the game tell us.
We still know very little about the new project. The developers report that they will radically change the thinking and behavior of sims, as well as introduce completely new ways of creating and configuring game worlds. This may mean more flexibility in terms of customizing both Sims and the environment.
In addition, the authors noted that players will have a choice – to play alone or cooperate with others, which hints at the appearance of elements of multiplayer or even a full-fledged MMO component. We also talked about the fact that The Sims 5 can be played on supported devices – probably, the list of platforms on which the simulator of life will be available will expand and go beyond PCs and home consoles. We would bet that the title will be available on computers, consoles, mobile platforms and cloud services, which means that gamers will be able to play anywhere.
However, given the status of early development, The Sims 5 may come to us in a completely different form by the release. We expect that the authors will regularly share their progress and consult with the community about what fans would like to see in the game.
RELEASE DATE OF THE SIMS 5
For the past twenty years, Electronic Arts has been releasing a new part of the Sims every 4-5 years. This schedule was observed with almost religious fanaticism.
The first Sims was released in 2000 and sold 11.5 million copies. The Sims 2 was released in 2004, and The Sims 3 - in 2009, The Sims 4 – in 2014. Hopes for the announcement of a new part of the series for its 20th anniversary, which was celebrated on February 4, 2020, were not justified.
In the official announcement on October 18, 2022, the developers reported that the game is at an early stage of production and it should not be expected until 2024. Perhaps the igrodel will first release it to early access in order to gradually bring it to the state of the finished product.
