Okay get ready ready to clutch at some straws with me because that’s what I’m going to do.
I think most of us follow the sims community? Well there was an article about hiring new staff for a different Sims project (“an exciting new game in the best selling sims franchise”)
That really awoken the fans looking forward to sims 5.
So I’m predicting 2022 for sims 5. Why? Because not only does it take that long to write a game with a full team, but the PS5 and the next Xbox is rumoured to come out in 2020 at the earliest. Now that the sims is on console it would make sense to write the game for the newest console out.
Also the TS4 gurus mentioned they are planning for the next 3 years- the packs coming out are starting to show a pattern.
Total Packs 2015: 8
Total Packs 2016: 7
Total Packs 2017: 6
Total Packs 2018: 4 (it’s sitting at 4 atm but with Christmas slowly approaching and all the rumours about, I think we’re due for one late Oct-early Dec meaning it will probably be 5)
Following the pattern it would be
2019: 4 Packs
2020: 3 Packs
2021: 2 Packs
2022: 1 Pack
That’s 4 years but I think it would end in 2021 with 3 packs instead of the 2- making it 3 years. (This is absolutely just speculation based on the pattern of the past 3/4 years)
The Sims 4 came out a year after Sims 3 finished up. If TS4 finished in 2021 it would make sense for TS5 to wait until 2022 for its opening. Giving the sims team enough time to finish the game along with enough time for people to forget about how much money they put into TS4.
I’m content with TS4 atm, I put this up just for discussion and entertainment while we wait for some TS4 news.![:) :)]()
