Developer Electronic Arts has shared a new update concerning the future of The Sims franchise. It introduces a new type of downloadable content (DLC) for The Sims 4 and confirms that the series will now “move beyond linear, sequential” releases and instead focus on a “variety of games and experiences”.

The information, which was posted to The Sims website, states that the “continued depth, improvements, and modernization of The Sims 4” is still a top priority, describing the game as “a foundational Sims experience”. It will continue to be supported, with separate “innovative experiences” coming via The Sims Labs - a new platform focused on “experimental ways to play The Sims”.
