Do you think sims 5 will be announced during EA Play live July 22?

Whatever new thing that's online that they're working on might be, but I don't think it's intended as a "Sims 5" that follows Sims 4. I think it's more a Sims Online 2. They've said they have years of ideas for Sims 4; I don't expect a Sims 5 announcement for a very, very long time.

I think it's time for EA to let go of Sims 4. There's really no reason why EA cannot put those ideas into Sims 5,unless they really want to keep spending a lot of time and money fixing countless bugs and glitches that keep piling on the longer Sims 4 goes on. The longer the game goes on,the worse the game engine becomes...pretty soon,it will break and EA will be unable to repair it.

ISims 1 didnot go on forever and ever...Sims 2 didn't go on forever and ever...Sims 3 didn't go on forever and ever. Why should we have to stay locked in "The Endless Sims 4 Era"? Please,EA-just end Sims 4 soon and give us Sims 5 already...it's time to move on and embrace the future instead of keeping a buggy,laggy,glitchy game going on for "many many many many many more years". /m hoping that Sims 5 will be announced later this year,and that we get it sometime next year.

I doubt it, but their recent behaviour has been weird, right? Even if they announced 5, it being years out wouldn't overshadow Cottage Living that much. That is what makes me suspect something related to 4.

Watch it be a DLC subscription service like Paradox has been rolling out.

Cars however could over shadow Cottage Living.

Maybe you're right, but honestly they wouldn't for me. Fast Lane Stuff was pretty well the one thing I never bought for 3 until I started playing it again.

I do miss visible carpools. Just one more way to show how your Sim is moving up in the world.

I doubt it. From what I've been seeing, The Sims doesn't appear to be one of the featured games/franchises at EA Play this year.

I don't think it's TS5, even tho I have seen the rumors with the supposed lineup on Reddit, (which that post was deleted by the original thread starter). At first, I thought it was plausible, just because they announce it doesn't mean it's ready to ship. They could announce it for the end of next year, and that would still give them almost another 18 months to work on it.

But, after they stated TS4 has years and years of content left, that pretty much confirmed to me that the rumor was just that .... a rumor.

Now, if they are going to announce something for TS4, I think it will be BIG, as in something the fans have been begging for years to have, to make such a big deal by announcing it at EA Play.

Something like one of these things:

• Real Babies and not objects
  
• Cars
  
• Werewolves
  

That's my speculation.

That rumored lineup on Reddit was clearly made up, as they already got the Apex Legends trailer and the date of the event wrong.

Interestingly enough, one of the comments claimed that they have inside info and TS5 is years off. Judging from this poster’s comment history on Reddit, they don’t appear to be a Sims player at all. I’m not sure why they’d be making this up if it’s not real.

I think The Sims 5 will be announced at EA Play this year, but just as a "Coming when it's ready" title, some small tidbits and no trailer or screenshots (maybe some concept art and that's all). Not for inmediate release or coming soon, just as a "Hey, we're working on it" and to attract some spotlight. DLCs for TS4 are good for a week or two of press attention, but a new game is always more juicy and generates more headlines.

Aside of Vehicles, Maybe Music Pack + 5 of Ava Max's songs re-recorded in Simlish in The Sims 4

They are probably still in the prototyping stage, so that would be too early... They might announce something though because they moved the release of Cottage living so it's released before EA Play, which hints that maybe they wanted it to be released so it would not get in the way of whatever they would announce during EA Play.

They also have an offer where you will get three additional items if you buy Cottage Living before September 2nd. September 2nd is the sims4's 7 year anniversary.

So maybe they will announce something.

I thought EA Play was on Thursday the same day Cottage Living comes out. By the way I think their going to make a big Sims 4 Announcement and they might announce Sims 5 as well.

If they would have followed their original release schedules when they tend to release Expansion Packs, then Cottage Living would have been released on Friday (July 23rd), but they moved the release date to July 22nd, before EA Play Live.

My guess of what they might announce is The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection on Origin since it's rumored that EA will release that again.

Maybe it will be announced like Dragon Age 4 and Mass Effect 4. Here's some short trailer and concept art, coming for few years. :D :smiley: :D
