The Sims sequence is popping 25 in February, however Maxis is kicking the social gathering off early with a Behind The Sims episode subsequent Tuesday, January 14. The video premiere on YouTube is scheduled for 9am Pacific / 5 pm GMT.
Maxis informed gamers again in September that we might count on an occasion in January to kick off the anniversary and mentioned on the time that “there’s a lot to stay up for within the coming months, and we simply can’t assist however share some with you now.”
Sometimes throughout a Behind The Sims episode we get information concerning the subsequent DLC kits coming to The Sims 4, updates from The Sims Cell, and a few point out of the upcoming Mission Rene.
