The new Sims 4 Player Survey suggests more Expansion Pack releases and possible Brand collaborations.
Electronic Arts has started rolling out a new Sims 4 Survey via mail over the last few days. Unlike with the in-game survey which typically covers recent Sims 4 releases and player satisfaction, this one is more general. Covering questions about the current satisfaction of The Sims 4, its current playability, interests in future Expansion Packs and Brand collabs that you’ve heard of and / or like. This could potentially mean that The Sims Team is also looking into collaborating with new brands sometime in the near future.
We’ve gotten an email from our reader Nate who captured all of the new Sims 4 survey questions and topics. Take a read below:
