Electronic Arts has announced The Sims 4 for PC and Mac OS in 2014, and perhaps the biggest news is that the game will be a “single player offline experience”, unlike the SimCity reboot.
According to the press release:
As a thank you for the support of the more than 30 million fans that share and discuss stories about The Sims across global social networks, a special VIP briefing was held this morning where several of the world’s top fans were amongst the first to hear the news about The Sims 4. This select group was the first in the world to hear from the creative team for The Sims 4, and they will receive special access to the development team as the game progresses.
The official site can be found here, though it’s only an email registration and a bunch of Simlish for the hardcore Sims fans to interpret.
