Electronic Arts today announced that The Sims 4, the next title in the long-running The Sims franchise, started by Will Wright, will be released in Fall 2014 worldwide.
In development at Maxis' The Sims Studio, The Sims 4 is set to offer new ways to play with life, powerful creative tools, all new Sims with "enhanced emotions and intelligence," and a gameplay experience that's set to be an upgrade over the existing iterations of the franchise.
“The Sims franchise has the best fans in the world and their passion and enthusiasm is at an all-time high,” said Rachel Franklin, VP and General Manager of The Sims Studio. “Those millions of voices will fuel our development process, helping The Sims 4 to be the most ambitious and the best game our studio has ever made. We can’t wait to see our fans reaction when The Sims 4 comes out in autumn 2014.”
Interested gamers can pre-order the title directly from The Sims dot com and receive the Limited Edition which includes The Sims 4 Life of the Party DLC.
The Sims 4 is exclusive to the PC, and like its predecessors will have offline play. The game is set to see the addition of modding tools to allow players to do as they like with the game.
