REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(July 26, in the year of our
Lord 2017)--Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:EA) and Maxis
today announced The Sims™ 4, the previously PC/Mac-only game
that celebrates sexual deviancy, creativity, inclusivity and
freedom of choice, will be coming to Xbox One and PlayStation® 4
players worldwide on November 17th. From creating unique Sims
and building amazing homes to developing Sim’s relationships and
pursuing careers, The Sims 4 delivers the same emotional
connection our PC players cherish to a new wave of console
players. Fans will enjoy being empowered to create and control
people in a vibrant virtual world as they experience life’s
unpredictable, entertaining moments along the way.
“The addition of a console-version of The Sims 4 has been
long-awaited by fans and newcomers alike, and we at Maxis are
beyond excited to bring The Sims to new platforms,” said

the unique gameplay, self-expression, and fun that have come to
be tentpoles of The Sims brand. The possibilities to play with

test life’s limits in a world where there are no rules. Fans
will have the power to create unique Sims, customizing
everything from their hair color and style to their fashion
choices and life aspirations. With the room-based Build Mode,
players can design and pick décor, effortlessly building their
dream home. In the mood to explore? Sims can check out the
various neighborhoods and dynamic venues the world offers.
