EA introduces “The Sims” 25th Anniversary Bundle with New Features and Content

Celebrating 25 Years of The Sims

Can you believe it? It’s been a whopping 25 years since The Sims first graced our screens, and what a wild ride it’s been! From the moment we stepped into that pixelated world, we found ourselves captivated by the quirky characters and the endless possibilities of virtual life. As we prepare for next week’s big celebrations, we’re kicking things off with a nostalgic bang: the launch of the The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle!

What’s in store, you ask? We’re taking a trip down memory lane with the re-release of two fan-favorite titles that many of you grew up with. Remember the sneaky burglar, that unpredictable genie, or the infamous Sunny the Tragic Clown? They’re all back, ready to stir up some nostalgia and fun. This bundle includes The Sims and The Sims 2, complete with all the iconic characters, music, and gameplay that made us fall in love with this franchise in the first place. Plus, there’s bonus content to keep the excitement going!

Hit The Mother Lode with The Sims: Legacy Collection

Ready to relive the magic of the early 2000s? With the The Sims: Legacy Collection, you can party like it’s Y2K all over again! Picture this: baggy jeans, bedazzled flip phones, and pop stars rocking chunky highlights. You’re in control of an entire neighborhood of Sims, and whether you choose to build them up or unleash chaos is entirely up to you.

Let’s dive into the original Create-a-Sim feature, where you can craft Sims that reflect your wildest imaginations. Choose their outfits, allocate personality points, and get ready to welcome them into their new homes. Will you opt for a cozy pre-built house, or go all out and design their dream abode from scratch? Maybe throw in a hot tub or a heart-shaped bed for some extra flair! In this world, you have the power to guide your Sims toward happiness or let mayhem ensue.

The Sims: Legacy Collection includes not just the original game but also a treasure trove of bonus content: from Livin’ Large to Makin’ Magic, plus the The Sims 4: Throwback Fit Kit. It’s a blast from the past that you won’t want to miss!

Fulfill Your Sims’ Dreams with The Sims 2: Legacy Collection

Now, let’s talk about the next chapter: the The Sims 2: Legacy Collection. Are you ready to break generational curses or keep the cycle going? What kind of legacy will your Sims leave behind? With this collection, you get to shape their stories across lifetimes, deciding which traits and quirks will be passed down through the generations.

In The Sims 2, your Sims inherit both physical and personality traits from their ancestors, opening up a world of storytelling possibilities. You can craft unique Sims from head to toe, using an array of hairstyles, outfits, and facial features. And when it comes to building homes and neighborhoods, your creativity knows no bounds!

What aspirations will your Sims chase? Will they become popular, filthy rich, or find that perfect romance? The choice is yours! And don’t forget about the movie-making feature that lets you capture all those big moments in your Sims’ lives. Whether it’s a wedding day or a dramatic family reunion, you can be the director of their stories.

The Sims 2: Legacy Collection includes all the beloved expansions like University, Nightlife, and even Pets. Plus, you’ll get some fun extras like the The Sims 4: Grunge Revival Kit.
