Sims Labs: EA's New Game Fills Void of Sims 5
A new Sims game is in the works, and it might be what Sims fans have been waiting for! Currently in playtesting in Australia, The Sims Labs: Town Stories offers a sneak peek at potential future features. While not the fully-fledged Sims 5, this mobile simulation game serves as a testing ground for EA, exploring new gameplay mechanics and ideas for the franchise.
This latest addition to the Sims family is part of EA's broader Sims Labs project, launched last August. While you can find its Google Play listing, it's not yet globally available; access requires signing up via EA's website and being located in Australia.
Initial Reactions to The Sims Labs: Town Stories
Early reactions from gamers, particularly on Reddit, have been mixed. Some express disappointment with the graphics and visuals, speculating about potential microtransactions.
Gameplay blends classic Sims-style building with character-driven narratives. Players build neighborhoods, guide residents through personal stories, advance Sims' careers, and uncover Plumbrook's secrets.
Early footage and screenshots suggest the game shares similarities with previous Sims titles. Given its experimental nature, EA is likely testing concepts for future development.
