Lifetime revenue, so since TS4's release.

For comparison, the entire Sims franchise passed $2.5 billion lifetime revenue in 2010. That included TS1 (and its EPs), TS2 (and its EPs/SPs), TS3 (base game + 1EP + 8 months of store content), and many other spin-off games and console games.

Between the three major installments of The Sims, and their numerous expansions, add-ons, and spin-offs, the publisher said its flagship franchise has brought in more than $2.5 billion in revenues, with more than 125 million copies sold to date.

LOL wow.

I'd say that's a good return on their investment.

Good. Now they should invest that money back into Sims 4's development instead of giving us content droughts or mediocre cash grabs like MFPS ?

Cool. Maybe this will translate to consumer savings.

Is this the only thing that's gonna make EA money now that lootboxes are getting illegalized? Haha

I couldn't agree with you more.

Whoa. Wait... so the Sims 4 has just - by itself - made almost half of what the entirety of the franchise that came before it has made altogether? Am I understanding that correctly?

Holy smokes. :o

Please bring back stuff packs..... I miss them!
