The next Sims game currently goes under the name Project Rene rather than The Sims 5, but that aside, we know a growing amount about EA Maxis’ next social simulation. During today’s latest Behind The Sims community update, they shared more, including the news that the next entry in the series would be free-to-play and without energy mechanics or a subscription.

    I am not affected by this since I prefer more … challenging games.
    But this just reflects an overall strategy of EA towards a game as a service strategy.

    now at least players can test before they put good money into the sinkhole. But my guess is that this will only scare those away who refused this from the beginning.
