Early Access starts Tonight at 6pm Pacific

Note it hasn't been confirmed yet but normally it comes the day after a patch. I can't imagine them holding this off till Thursday 1 day from Release.

My guess is the embargo for early access ends at 8am pacific Tomorrow.

The Gamechangers likely got their codes today and cant say anything till Tomorrow.

  • That’s a bummer it’s 9pm est which is right before I need to go to bed for responsible adulting the next day. I guess I’ll have to watch at breaks.

    I feel like they have shown everything from sims camp. Could there be more?


    They're getting their early access codes for the full pack (or got them today) so there's going to be new content, all packs included unlike Sims Camp when it was just base game & uni.
  • Wow that's really a new approach. That will be 6am Thursday for most of Europe, 5am for UK. But I guess it's a better time for Australians than usually.
  • Does that mean they will get the early acess codes 6PM or they already got them and will be allowed to post videos 6PM?

    They already got the codes, the time is for when they're allowed to post videos or start streaming.

    Eh, the unfortunate thing about time zones is that no matter what EA chooses, it's going to be too late or too early for someone.
  • Perfect time for me. Dinner done & relaxing with a cuppa. I won't be able to buy for awhile so hope to watch lots of gameplay.
    Seems I live vicariously through my Sims and now thru simmers.
