EA’s Behind the Sims presentation was full of quite a lot of information—a brand new begin display screen for The Sims 4, new base sport gadgets, and a townie house refresh—however some non-Sims 4 information I’m notably enthusiastic about is the truth that the MySims: Cozy Bundle is getting a PC port, heading to our desktops on March 18.
Remember that kinda bizarre, chibi-Sim Animal Crossing-adjacent spin-off sport? I would not blame you in the event you mentioned “no,” contemplating the unique MySims is the one one within the sequence that ever made it to PC again in 2008. But now it is re-releasing on our humble desktops alongside MySims Kingdom, which places a lil’ medieval spin on the entire method.
The bundle landed on the Switch again in November of final 12 months, so this is not precisely completely new even by re-release requirements, however I’m at all times pleased to see previous video games that did not make it over to PC lastly getting their much-deserved port.
PC Gamer spoke to Sims sequence VP of franchise inventive Lyndsay Pearson earlier this month, and had the chance to ask her just a little bit about MySims. “At its coronary heart, it is nonetheless very, very Sims,” she mentioned. “It’s the little characters which have a whole lot of actually foolish personalities, and also you get to customize their world, meet their neighbours, make pals with them. And so I like that DNA of The Sims which comes by with such a distinct really feel.”
Pearson added that the spin-off sequence “scratches a really totally different itch than I get out of The Sims 4 or 3 or any of our different greater, conventional HD choices on PC. So it is enjoyable to have the ability to type of reintroduce a distinct flavour and provides new audiences an opportunity.”
Hey, it is me, I’m the brand new viewers. I by no means really obtained round to taking part in MySims as a child—I liked The Sims and had a Wii, nevertheless it was extra of a Mario Kart field than something I really remembered to purchase video games for. I’m excited to dive in and provides the video games a go, and who is aware of? Maybe if we’re good we’ll get a MySims Agents port someplace down the road, too.
