The Sims turns 25 with updates in FreePlay, livestreams and more

Author : Ellie Mar 16,2025

The Sims franchise celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, with festivities spanning numerous releases, including mobile titles. The Sims FreePlay features new Y2K-themed content in its "FreePlay 2000" update.

When discussing gaming's landmark franchises, names like Doom, Wolfenstein, The Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, Super Mario, and Tetris often arise. However, Maxis's The Sims deserves equal recognition, celebrating its 25th anniversary this year!

Initially conceived as a SimCity spin-off, The Sims offered unprecedented control over simulated lives, from childhood to adulthood, marriage, careers, parenthood, and ultimately, death. Its enduring popularity across various iterations cemented its place as a genre-defining franchise. The series' impact is significant enough that our company even launched a dedicated website for The Sims news! EA is commemorating this milestone with celebrations across all platforms, from The Sims 4 to The Sims FreePlay.
