The Sims is marking its 25th birthday with an extravaganza of celebrations, and Electronic Arts is pulling out all the stops to make it memorable. From its humble beginnings as a SimCity spin-off, The Sims has evolved into a beloved storytelling platform that many of us have enjoyed throughout our lives.
What’s The Sims Planning for Its 25th Birthday?
In honor of its 25th anniversary, The Sims is rolling out 25 days of free gifts. That's right, you can snag 25 unique presents over 25 days, but you'll need to log in daily to claim each one as they're available for just a single day. This exciting celebration will continue through the end of February 2025, and EA is planning a massive birthday bash across the entire Sims franchise. Expect updates, rereleases, engaging events, and a slew of new content to immerse yourself in.
The Sims Mobile is also joining the party by offering two free gifts to anyone who logs in during its birthday week, starting from March 4th. Additionally, EA has collaborated with Spotify to craft the ultimate Sims playlist, featuring the greatest hits from various Sims games.
It’s a Blast from the Past!
The Sims FreePlay is turning back the clock to the early 2000s, bringing a wave of nostalgia with content that evokes memories of chunky flip phones, frosted tips, and velour tracksuits. To celebrate 25 years of The Sims, FreePlay introduces two new live events: The One with the Coffee Shop and Reality Island, both of which are a delightful trip down memory lane. The Social Town update further enriches the experience with new homes, a helicopter, and a museum dedicated to FreePlay's history, offering plenty to explore.
