SuperData, a Nielsen Company which is in charge of video game market research has published a report on most played video games in the period of February 2020. Although The Sims 4 is not in the Top 10 PC / Console games list this time around, the game has still managed to get some huge numbers during this month.

The report states that The Sims 4 had the biggest amount of players on PS4 in February 2020 thanks to the game being free for this period for PS Plus members. The game had a number of 2.5 million players on Playstation 4, beating the number of 2.2 million on PC.

A free giveaway of The Sims 4 for PlayStation Plus users led to the title’s console players outnumbering PC users for the first time (2.5M vs. 2.2M). The title has long earned the lion’s share of its revenue from the sale of in-game content, so the giveaway presented a low-risk way to attract new audience members and potentially convert them to spenders down the road.

Caramelwolfkaye

If we can get cc and mods. There will be no need for pc in the future For 1 ya dont need to shell out for a pc to run the sims. And 2 you can sit on your sofa and play.

Sasha

Which is why Ps4 needs Custom Content.

no

i dont think so

Chelsey

Agreed I love it on ps4. Custom content please !!!! Or a color wheel

Maxi

Not that surprising considering it’s part of Sony’s subscription service now.

Asia

Yes, Console really do need CC. If Grand Thef Auto 5 can be modded on consoles, So can Sims 4 on Console. Beat around the bush EA

Bayley Rowell

As far as I’m concerned, PC is still better, because you can’t use CC or Mods on PS4. Even if they allowed it in the future, downloading all of that on console would be a hassle and would just take up WAY too much space.
Besides that, I just don’t really like playing games like The Sims on console.
