The Sims is turning 25, and Electronic Arts is throwing a massive party! From its humble beginnings as a *SimCity* spin-off to the life-simulation powerhouse it is today, *The Sims* has touched countless lives. To celebrate this milestone, get ready for a month of fantastic gifts!
What's The Sims Planning for Its 25th Birthday?
For 25 days, *The Sims* is giving away 25 free gifts! That's right, a daily dose of celebratory goodies. But you'll need to log in each day to claim your prize, as each gift is only available for 24 hours. This epic giveaway runs through the end of February 2025.
EA's 25th-anniversary celebration spans the entire *Sims* franchise, bringing updates, rereleases, events, and exciting new content. *The Sims Mobile* is also joining the fun, offering two free gifts to players who log in during its birthday week, starting March 4th. And to complete the celebration, EA has collaborated with Spotify to create the ultimate *Sims* playlist, featuring iconic tracks from the game's history.
It's a Blast from the Past!
*The Sims FreePlay* is taking us on a nostalgic trip back to the 2000s! Celebrate 25 years of *The Sims* with content that captures the essence of the era: chunky flip phones, frosted tips, and velour tracksuits, oh my!
Two new live events, "The One with the Coffee Shop" and "Reality Island," offer a delightful dose of retro fun. The Social Town update adds new homes, a helicopter, and a museum brimming with *FreePlay* history—a perfect blend of new and nostalgic experiences.
Head over to the Google Play Store and dive into the festivities in *The Sims Mobile* and *FreePlay* today!
