The gaming industry is buzzing with the news of the newest installment in The Sims franchise, The Sims 5. As one of the most popular and successful life simulation series, the anticipation for the fifth installment, thought to be called The Sims 5 or Project Renaissance, has been steadily building. Now, with the recent announcement of The Sims 4: Starlight Celebrations Expansion Pack and the hint of a major reveal early in 2021, excitement has reached a fever pitch.
Players already know what the basic concept of The Sims 5 will be, but more details are slowly being revealed. The Sims 5 could potentially bring a host of new features, new styles of gameplay and more. What will The Sims 5 bring, and when is the release date?
Created by Electronic Arts Inc, The Sims 5 is planned to be a re-imagining of the original series. It is believed to be taking full advantage of powerful modern gaming platforms, with improved graphic capabilities and a much-needed overhaul of classic gameplay. The Sims 5 should bring a renewed, modern feel to the franchise.
The most talked about and exciting feature of The Sims 5 is its emphasis on storytelling and player choice. Players will have more control on the day to day lives of their sims, with the ability to customize their jobs, work environments, relationships with characters and more. Players will be able to delve deeper into their sims’ lives and customize their journey even more.
Another new feature is the centralization of events and stories. The Sims 5 is set to feature connected events that will affect the lives of all sims in the same world. These events will force players to make more moral decisions, which can heavily influence the stories that their sims live.
Other features hinted at are a more seamless game sharing experience, increased resolution limit and improved cloud storage capabilities; all of which should allow players to bring their creations to the world and back again with ease.
The Sims 5 is still in development and the exact date of its release is yet to be announced. In the meantime, EA has stated that there will be a major update early in 2021.
Although there are no firm details about The Sims 5 or its release date, it’s certain that it will be one of the most talked about titles when it comes out. With its emphasis on storytelling, increased graphical capabiltiies and deep player choices, The Sims 5 should have enough new features to please both long-time fans and newcomers alike.
