The Sims Celebrates 25 Years with Massive Franchise-Wide Updates!

This year marks a significant milestone for gaming: The Sims turns 25! To commemorate this anniversary, Electronic Arts (EA) is launching a series of celebrations across the entire franchise, including updates for mobile versions.

Initially conceived as a SimCity spin-off, The Sims revolutionized gaming by offering unprecedented control over the lives of virtual characters. Players guide their Sims through life's major events – childhood, education, marriage, careers, parenthood, and ultimately, death. The game's enduring popularity and influence on the gaming landscape solidified its place as a landmark franchise. In fact, its impact is so significant that we even dedicated an entire website to The Sims news!
