To help keep you up-to-date with all of the latest developments on the topic, we’ve compiled a list of the most interesting and official nods to a The Sims 5 release date, or clues on where abouts it is in the development process.
What Is The Sims 5 Release Date?
At the time of writing, there is no word on when The Sims 5 is coming out. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t some potential hints and teases that the game is in development at least within Maxis and EA. First off, in EA’s Q3 2020 earnings call, CEO Andrew Wilson made a comment regarding the future of ‘The Sims’ series, stating: While this doesn’t give too much away, it’s that first sentence that’s particularly important, as it eludes to the fact that Maxis is in the pre-production or conceptualization phase of The Sims 5’s development. Given this was mentioned in the Q3 2020 earnings call, however, chances are the game may have come along a little bit since then. Whether or not the Covid-19 pandemic slowed down progress, though, remains to be seen. The only other potential source of The Sims 5 release date news could come as part of the The Sims roadmap for the coming year. In response to Twitter user Iron_Cgull who asked when the roadmap would be coming, which will outline what the development team is planning to release in the next 12 months, the official Sims Twitter account released with a gif teasing ‘It’s gonna be May.’ It should be noted here, though, that this in no way guarantees any sort of The Sims 5 announcement for next month. There’s just a slight chance that Maxis may at least give us an update on the next entry in the series. Once the roadmap has been released, we’ll update this post and let you know if there’s been any mention of when The Sims 5 is coming out. If there are any other official announcements or teases of The Sims 5 release date, we’ll update this post to keep you in the loop! For now, you’ll just have to sit tight and wait for any official announcement.
