I think 2022 or 2023 it’ll be released. And I personally think it’s being created by the new EA Austin team....
Maxis Austin is working on a brand new IP.
Wouldn’t Sims 5 count as a new IP? Or are IPs only the beginning of a series? I apologize the terms escape me ??
IP = Intellectual property. The Sims for example is an original IP wholly owned by EA. FIFA and Star Wars games meanwhile are licensed IPs, as EA does not own FIFA or Star Wars.
A brand new IP would imply a brand new game that's not part of any existing IPs.
