Sims 4



On April 25, 2013, several screenshots from mock-up flash videos of the user interface were leaked online.[5]  On May 3, 2013, Electronic Arts sent out an e-mail to several fansites stating that there would be a big announcement on May 6, 2013, which many speculated would be The Sims 4.

The game is being developed by The Sims Studio and Maxis, unlike The Sims 3, which was developed by The Sims Studio alone, although many Maxis employees worked on the game. This will also mark the full return of Maxis to develop a main The Sims title. Maxis had recently returned to develop SimCity after a long hiatus, which released in March 2013.

The Sims 4 will be a single-player game,[6]  and will not require an internet connection to play, but will need an Origin account and internet access during the initial installation process.[7] [8]

Gameplay was unveiled in Gamescom 2013 alongside other EA titles. Unveiled features focused on the improved Create-A-Sim and emotion based gameplay.[9]  Select players called Yibsims who mostly manage fan sites and YouTube videos were invited to Sims Camp to see the game before the public and press, consequently the game received minimal coverage outside fansites. Maxis stated the game would run better on lower end PCs than The Sims 3, which was plagued with performance issues on low end and high end PCs.[10]

On October 22, 2013 it was announced that The Sims 4 will be released in the fall of 2014.[11]
