The Sims 5 wishlist: when is Sims 5 coming out?

The Sims 4 is coming up to its 8th birthday this year and there's still no Sims 5 release date to speak of, unfortunately. There are a few rumours about the next Sims game floating around, but there's nothing concrete to report yet.

In the absence of any confirmed details, it’s about time we look ahead and start thinking about what we want from the next Sims game. While The Sims 4 did well, it’s very hard to overlook some of the things that feel a little scaled down from previous entries in the series, not to mention all of the features that could have been implemented since in the form of post-launch content and patches. After all, we live in an age now where the game that releases is different from the one that players experience several years later.

Hopefully, Maxis Studios knows exactly what it’s doing, and craft something beyond our wildest dreams, but we also really want them to include a few features that fans have been asking for since the earliest days of the series. We’re not saying we know better - we definitely do not - just that we’d like these to be included if that’s okay please and thank you.
