Maxis is celebrating 25 years of The Sims Franchise with a special look into future releases.
Electronic Arts has announced today that they’ll be doing a special Behind The Sims video release on January 14th, 2025. This special pre-recorded episode will cover a future roadmap for The Sims 4 releases, a potential new look into the developments of Project Rene and more!
Here’s what we can expect based on everything we know so far:
Behind The Sims 2025: What to Expect
The Sims Team is expected to cover multiple product releases during their next Behind The Sims Episode. Based from previous announcements and news from official EA investor presentations, we’re almost certain that new technology and features will be shown.
AI features have been announced to come to The Sims 4 soon, all under the umbrella of The Sims Hub. Which will be a new central station for making various purchases, creations and more for The Sims 4, The Sims Town Stories Mobile Game and Project Rene.
Speaking of The Sims Town Stories, we got a special first look a couple of months ago to EA’s third mobile game release for The Sims. This time focusing on populating the town with Sims and telling their stories.
For The Sims: Project Rene we can expect further developments into this co-op experience and how the game’s been progressing so far.
And for the everlasting The Sims 4, you can expect a look into future DLC releases. We already know the next three Kits coming to the game.
Looking at the episode teaser, we might also get a first look into the next Sims 4 Expansion Pack. That’s just our speculation for now based on the crown illustration, which could be matching to the Expansion Pack idea EA suggested a couple of months ago in their official survey.
Also, is it time that we finally find out what The Sims Movie could actually be about? Time will tell!
